May 2015 Corvette Sales


General Motors released the May sales report earlier this week and Corvette sales keep humming along at a pace greater than what we saw in 2014. For the month of May, a total of 3,514 Corvettes were delivered to new owners. This is 5.6% ahead of the 3,328 Corvettes sold during May 2014. For the Calendar Year to Day (CYTD), a total of 15,500 Corvette Stingrays and Z06s have been sold which is 3.2% more than the same time period in 2014.

According to Chevrolet, this is the Corvette’s best May since 1986!

Comparing May 2015 to April 2015, 45 more Corvettes were delivered for an increase month-to-month of 1.3%.

For all practical purposes, the 2015 model year is over. Production of the 2015s will run through June 19th and then the 2016 Corvette models will start production on Monday, June 22nd. Regarding the 2016s, we are expecting GM to release pricing information any day now.

Here’s the GM Sales Report for Corvettes in May 2015:

For the month of May, GM delivered 293,097 vehicles in the United States which was up 3% over sales in May 2014.

Chevrolet’s three-truck strategy is paying off with Silverado sales accounting for 27% of pickup sales in May, while the Chevrolet Colorado’s sales are rising faster than GM can keep up with production, despite adding a third production shift in March.
