Report: GM will sell 2,500 Chevy Volts in August, the most ever Filed under: Car Buying, Sedan, Chevrolet, GM, Electric http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog....1302065043.jpg We should be getting August's official sales numbers early next week, but The Detroit Free Press is already reporting that General Motors will have something to be proud of in the announcement: 2,500 Chevrolet Volt sales, the car's best month ever. Previously, the best month of sales was March 2012, when GM sold 2,289 Volts. GM spokeswoman Michelle Malcho told the Freep that, "We're really seeing momentum continuing to build. As people see their neighbors have one and as they start to understand the technology and are able to drive it, they put it into their consideration." Malcho said California residents buy a third of all Volts, and Michigan is also a strong sales market. We heard recently that the GM plant that builds the Volt in Hamtramck, Michigan will be idled for a month starting in the middle of September, either to retool the machines or balance out supply and demand or a little bit of both. Currently, GM is building both 2012 and 2013 model year Volts "to accelerate the transition to the new model."GM will sell 2,500 Chevy Volts in August, the most ever originally appeared on Autoblog on Thu, 30 Aug 2012 13:29:00 EST.
