General Motors reports that its U.S. vehicle sales decline in the second quarter, with weaker demand for electric vehicles. CNBC and Quartz report that GM’s Q2 U.S. sales fall 4.2% year over year, as demand for its all-electric vehicles drops. Quartz adds that GM sells 714,896 vehicles in the quarter, compared with 746,588 in the same period a year earlier. It also reports that EV sales are down 33% year over year. CNBC notes the decline is linked not only to falling EV demand but also to lower demand for the Chevrolet Silverado pickup. The Next Web similarly describes a modest overall sales decrease—stating it falls just over four percent—while citing declines in EV sales and Silverado demand. The outlets agree on the overall Q2 sales figure and the direction of change, but present slightly different emphasis on which product categories are driving the decline. All sources characterize the quarter as a setback for GM in the U.S., driven primarily by reduced electric-vehicle interest and softer pickup demand.
