GM Shatters Records: US Electric Vehicle Sales Skyrocket 115% in July

General Motors Achieves Historic EV Sales in July

In an unprecedented surge, General Motors Company announced on Monday that it sold 19,000 electric vehicles in the United States during July. This remarkable figure represents a staggering 115% increase compared to the same period last year.

The Equinox EV Leads the Charge

The standout performer for GM was the Equinox EV, which alone accounted for over 8,500 units sold. "This isn't just a record-breaking month for the Equinox EV; it's a historic milestone for any non-Tesla electric vehicle in the U.S.," the company proudly stated in its press release.

Growing Demand Amid Tax Credit Uncertainty

General Motors highlighted the growing appetite for electric vehicles across the automotive industry. This surge is partly attributed to the impending expiration of the US federal consumer tax credit program, prompting consumers to make their purchases sooner rather than later.
