General Motors released their latest monthly sales report and sales of the Corvette remain very strong with 2,378 Corvettes delivered in November 2014. However, sales did dip slightly by -5.9% from November 2013’s 2,527 deliveries.
For the calendar year to date (January-November 2014), GM has sold 31,287 Corvettes for a 119% gain over 2013’s sales of 14,286. Remember that in 2013, the factory was shut down for half the year while it was retooled for C7 production.
For a month to month comparison of deliveries from October 2014 to November 2014, Corvette sales dropped by -19.6%. October’s 2014 deliveries of 2,959 may have been higher than the actual market due to the stop sale orders issued in September regarding the airbag an emergency brake issues.
November’s deliveries are also likely impacted by the production of the Corvette Z06 which is now sharing space on the production line with the Corvette Stingray. Many of those first customers will see their 650-hp super cars delivered in the month of December.
Here’s the GM Sales Report for Corvettes in November 2014:
