Cadillac saw an 11.2% sales increase, with the recently launched Cadillac XT5 nearly doubling its year-over-year sales in the quarter.

The Wuling Hong Guang MINIEV family remained GM's top-selling NEV in China, reaching 117,000 units in the quarter, with the newly introduced four-door version contributing more than 77,000 units.

From 2025 onward, all new Buick models in China will be NEVs, covering the BEV, PHEV, and EREV segments across a wide price range.
