General Motors(GM) and its joint ventures delivered over 442,000 vehicles in China during the first quarter of 2025, achieving positive year-on-year growth and marking the third consecutive quarter of increased market share.
A significant contributor to this performance was the surge in New Energy Vehicle (NEV) sales, which include battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs), rising by 53.2% compared to the same period last year.
The Buick GL8 maintained its leadership in the premium multi-purpose vehicle segment with 24,000 units sold. The GL8 lineup is set to expand with the introduction of the all-new Buick GL8 Lu Shang, which will include a PHEV variant to strengthen its NEV offerings.
Additionally, the Buick LaCrosse experienced a more than twofold increase in deliveries, while sales of the Buick Envision Plus more than tripled during this period.
GM plans to further expand its NEV portfolio in 2025 by introducing extended-range electric vehicles (EREVs), aiming to offer at least one NEV option for every new locally launched model.
This strategic focus on NEVs aligns with China’s growing emphasis on sustainable transportation and positions GM competitively in the world’s largest automotive market.
