GM's new vehicle sales drop 5.5% in Q3, EV sales decline amid waning demand and high fuel prices.

General Motors reported a 5.5% year-over-year decline in new vehicle sales for the third quarter, selling 670,974 units. Sales of all-electric vehicles fell as consumer interest cooled following a spike last year due to expiring federal EV incentives. High fuel prices and limited hybrid offerings have also pressured GM's sales, particularly in trucks and SUVs, with all brands showing declines, including a 25% drop in Cadillac sales. Analysts suggest this weakness could benefit hybrid leader Toyota as the market shifts.

General Motors shares trade at USD 77.41 with a slight gain of 0.53% as of Oct 01, 2026 22:41 WIB on Pluang, despite the reported 5.5% drop in U.S. vehicle sales for the third quarter. Meanwhile, Toyota Motor Corp, noted by analysts as a potential beneficiary of shifting market dynamics, is priced at USD 182.48, down 0.34% at the same time. GM's market cap stands at $67.56 billion, reflecting ongoing investor interest amid sales challenges.
