GMC’s Commercial Line Gets a Sales Boost During the First Quarter of the Year

While sales for some of its retail models may have been down, GMC still benefited from sales growth for vehicles like the Savana

The Sierra, Terrain, and Acadia are among GMC’s most popular models. Still, it was a less famous GMC vehicle that really stood out in terms of sales growth during the year’s first quarter.

During this allotted time period, GMC sold a total of 6,566 Savana models. During the first quarter of 2018, GMC only managed to deliver 4,797 Savana vehicles.
