With the official ending of 2nd Quarter 2025, we now have the latest sales figures for the time period. During Q2 2025, Chevrolet delivered 5,801 new Corvettes which is a whopping 37.9% decline in sales from the same time period in 2024. For the year to date sales, a total of 12,595 new Corvettes have been delivered from January 1st to June 30th for a decline of 29.7% as compared to 2024’s sales figures.

While we are expecting to see some headlines addressing the sales decline, the real story is that it was planned. During both 1st and 2nd quarters of 2025, the Corvette Assembly Plant was had several weeks of closures for reworking the assembly line to better accommodate the widebody models over the long-standing Stingrays which become stagnant on dealer lots. Since that work was done, GM is now prioritizing the higher priced Z06s and in fact it usually builds more Z06s than Stingrays daily as the online C8 trackers have shown.

Another factor in the sales decline is that Chevrolet took no additional C8 Stingray orders after February which has helped to tighten up inventory levels on the ground.

As for the future, GM is also taking steps to revive the C8’s excitement with a redesigned interior coming on the 2026 models. The last two product reveals featuring the 2025 ZR1 and the 2026 ZR1X offer extreme levels of performance and MSRPs that are now north of $200,000.

Meanwhile, Corvette enthusiasts are now looking forward to the possibility of a new widebody Grand Sport model that will hopefully offer all those C8 Stingray owners a reason to upgrade. So despite this sales decline, the future is still bright for America’s Favorite Sports Car!

These delivery numbers are for U.S. sales only.

Our Corvette Sales Archives will be updated in October 2025 with the release of GM’s official 3rd Quarter 2025 sales numbers.

DETROIT — General Motors (NYSE: GM) announced that its U.S. sales increased 7% in the second quarter and 12% in the 2025 first half. GM led the U.S. automotive industry in total and retail sales in the year’s first six months, with sales growth well ahead of the estimated 4% total auto industry growth.

“The investments we have made in our crossovers, SUVs, and pickups – both gas and electric – along with great execution by our employees, suppliers and dealers, have made GM the engine of growth for the U.S. industry this year,” said Duncan Aldred, GM senior VP and president of North America.

Thanks to all-new or redesigned models like the Chevrolet Trax, Traverse, and Equinox, GMC Acadia and Terrain, and Buick Envista and Encore GX, GM posted record year-to-date sales of crossovers. Buick, which sells only crossovers, had the largest first-half sales increase of any mainstream brand, up 29%.

Chevrolet had its best first-half sales since 2019, up 9%. Chevy had record first-half sales of its crossover lineup, led by best-ever sales for Equinox. Coupled with GMC’s best-ever start to the year, including record Sierra deliveries, GM is on track for its sixth consecutive year as the industry’s full-size pickup sales leader and its 51st year as the full-size SUV leader.

GM became the industry’s #2 electric vehicle seller last year, and our EVs continue to grow faster than the industry, with sales up more than 100% in Q2. During the quarter, Chevrolet became the best-selling EV brand. Cadillac is the luxury EV market share leader1 in Q2, and had its best retail market share since 2014.

GM Envolve, the company’s fleet sales business, grew first-half sales and market share.
