OSHAWA, Ont. (April 1, 2022) — Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac dealers delivered 47,699 vehicles in the first quarter of 2022. That is down 24 per cent compared with the first quarter of 2021, and up 21 per cent over the fourth quarter of 2021.
“Our results this quarter demonstrate both the challenges the team has faced, and the successes they have delivered despite the headwinds,” said Sandor Piszar, vice president, sales, service and marketing, GM Canada. “The first quarter of 2021 was unique as customer demand in Canada was extremely strong at the same time that we had significant inventory on dealer lots. Since then, the industry-wide shortage of semiconductors required us to prioritize production of our most in-demand models. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, you can see the success GM Canada and our dealers have had getting those models to Canadian customers.”

- Chevrolet sold 12,733 Silverados up 27 per cent
