General Motors says it sold 745,152 vehicles in China during the first quarter of 2012, setting a new high water mark for the company. GM's 257,944 sales in March - up 10.7 percent compared to March 2011 - was also a company record.
Not surprisingly, GM's strong sales were led by its popular Buick brand. Buick's sales increased 3.7 percent in March to a record-setting 57,082 units. Buick's Excelle line was responsible for most of that volume, accounting for 38,198 sales during the month.
GM's Chevrolet and Cadillac brands also set March sales records, selling 54,716 vehicles and 2,745 vehicles, respectively.
