General Motors India has registered a growth of 112% in sales in June 2010, compared to the corresponding period last year. It sold 9,539 units in June 2010 against 4,492 units in June 2009.
The June 2010 sales of Chevrolet comprised 3,415 units of Beat, 2,911 units of the Spark, 773 units of the Cruze, 1,423 units of the Tavera, 398 Units of Aveo, 387 units of Aveo U-VA, 139 units of the Captiva and 93 units of Optra.
The increase in the sales was primarily driven by the tremendous response to the recently launched Chevrolet Beat, Chevrolet Cruze and the Chevrolet Spark.
Commenting on the performance, Mr. P. Balendran, Vice President, GM India said, "We are excited by the continued overwhelming response to Chevrolet Beat, Cruze and Spark. Introduction of best-in-segment cars from the 300 series, increase in customer outreach through distribution network, our unique value proposition like Chevrolet Cashless Ownership offer and our promise to deliver quality and performance are the factors that have led to the impressive sales.â€
The increase in the demand of cars has led them to introduce two shifts at the Halol and Talegaon factory. The demand is up and they obviously have to keep in check the supply. GM sure have captured their fair share of attention in the market.
