Chevrolet Impala, Pontiac G6 and Saturn Aura Contribute To Retail Sales Increase For Mid-Car Segment

DETROIT - GM dealers in the United States delivered 349,867 vehicles in March, a reduction of 7.7 percent on a sales day-adjusted basis (down 4.2 percent non-adjusted), compared with 365,375 total sales a year ago. Fleet sales were down 11.8 percent due to continuing reductions in daily rental sales. GM's March retail sales were down 6.2 percent compared with year-ago levels on a sales day-adjusted basis (down 2.8 percent non-adjusted).
For the first quarter of 2007, GM delivered 909,094 vehicles, a decline of 5.6 percent, driven by reductions of almost 60,000 daily rental vehicle sales. For the first quarter of 2007, GM retail sales were up 0.5 percent. The reductions in fleet sales have resulted in a significant improvement in the retail/fleet mix.
"As we continue to build upon our strategy of focusing on value, lowering daily rental sales and increasing residual values, we were able to grow retail sales for the quarter, posting year-over-year increases in 19 vehicle lines. That's very good news. In March, we saw continued strength and stability in our retail business led by gains in mid-cars, crossovers, economy cars and luxury SUVs," said Mark LaNeve, vice president, GM North American Sales, Service and Marketing. "The Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra, Acadia and Saturn Outlook are exceeding our expectations and confirm that when you offer the best product, value, segment-leading fuel economy and the best warranty coverage in the industry, customers respond."
GM March sales reflected the continuing strength of the new product portfolio with competitive incentive spending, balanced with ongoing reductions in daily rental fleet sales.
Chevrolet Aveo, Impala, Equinox, HHR, Suburban and Avalanche; Pontiac G6; Saturn Sky; GMC Yukon XL; Cadillac SRX, Escalade ESV and Escalade EXT all had March retail sales increases compared to a year ago. Pontiac G5; Saturn Aura and Outlook and the GMC Acadia are newly-offered products and continue to contribute retail sales momentum. The GMC Acadia and Saturn Outlook drove a 235 percent retail increase in the mid-crossover segment.
For the first quarter, Chevrolet Aveo, Impala, Colorado, Silverado, Suburban and Avalanche; Buick Rendezvous; Pontiac G6 and Vibe; Saturn Sky; GMC Canyon, Sierra and Yukon XL; Cadillac SRX, Escalade, Escalade ESV and Escalade EXT; Saab 9-5 and 9-7X all had retail sales increases compared with the first quarter of 2006. Pontiac G5, Saturn Aura and Outlook and GMC Acadia built retail strength in the quarter.
"GM offers the best coverage with a 5 year/100,000 mile powertrain limited warranty with roadside assistance and courtesy transportation. For customers, that translates to tangible value versus competitive cars, SUVs and trucks," LaNeve added. "Our customers are telling us that we have great products, industry-leading fuel economy and the best value out there. And with new products such as the Buick Enclave, Cadillac CTS and Chevrolet Malibu still to come this year, we expect to build on this momentum."

Some interesting numbers here. Mazda 3 and Fusion sales are up big. I wonder if incentives have anything to do with it.
No surprise F-Series sales are down. But it is surprising that both Silverado and Sierra sales are down. Tundra sales are picking up speed, and were close to Sierra sales this month.
Also incredible how the Camry continues to go up, and those Prius sales numbers are just crazy. Over 19,000 Priuses sod for March!
Solid showing for the G35 sedan, although the rest of the lineup is struggling.
Bad news for Hyundai: their sales continue to be stagnant.

The M seems to be doing just fine. The 5 is down for the year, but this was to be expected with the 08s coming out this month.

It's commendable that RX sales remain so high seeing as this model has been on the market for several years now. I predict the next-gen RX will hit some ridiculous sales numbers.
Lexus passenger cars reported best-ever March sales of 18,128 units, an increase of 26.7 percent over March 2006. Passenger car sales were led by the ES 350 luxury sedan with March sales of 7,444 units, up 69.7 percent. The all-new LS 460 reported sales of 3,134, an increase of 125.4 percent.
The RX 400h hybrid luxury utility vehicle reported sales of 1,471 units for the month.
Car and Drive just rated the MazdaSpeed 3 as head and shoulders better than its competition in a shoot out.
MotorWeek just reviewed one too IIRC and loved it.
