April 2017 Corvette Sales


General Motors has released its new Vehicle Sales Report for April 2017 and sales of Corvettes remain strong with 2,756 sold during the month. This is down -12.3% over the same time last year which saw 3,142 Corvettes sell in April 2016. For the Calendar Year to Date, a total of 8,560 Corvettes have been sold. This is a decline of -10% over the same time last year which saw 9,512 Corvettes sell between January through April.

The Bowling Green Assembly Plant is still building 2017 Corvettes and will do so through Friday, June 2nd. On Monday, June 5th, 2018 Corvette production will begin. You can place your order for a 2018 Corvette and still have it built before the plant undergoes its planned three month shut down. This includes the new 2018 Carbon 65 Edition. Customers have until June 12th to get their order in if they want a 2018 before summer.

As we mentioned earlier this week, Chevrolet ended the incentives for both the Loyalty Cash ($2,000) and the J57 Carbon Ceramic Brakes ($5,000). In its place, Chevrolet has assigned a limited number of Bonus Tags that would give 10% off the MSRP on selected 2017 Corvettes. See your dealers for details!
