GMC Closes 2017 With Best Year-End Global Sales Since 2005

GMC closed out a solid year of global sales performance with a 3 percent increase in total sales year over year and 1 percent increase in retail sales year over year, for 2017.

Testament to the brand’s strong product lines, GMC sales in the Middle East were up by 26% at the end of 2017 versus 2016 results, with the Sierra, Terrain, Yukon, and Yukon XL model results highlighted a growing demand in the region for trucks and SUVs.

GMC achieved an all-time record Denali sales volume in 2017 — roughly one-third (29 percent) of GMC vehicles sold worldwide were Denali, GMC’s highest trim. The pinnacle of design, performance and amenities, Denali also had its best month ever in December with 39 percent sales penetration. Four models achieved 30 percent or more in Denali sales for the year: Sierra HD (50 percent), Yukon XL (63 percent), Yukon (54 percent) and Acadia (30 percent).
