General Motors has announced that its global sales rose 4% — to 2.38 million vehicles — during the third quarter of 2007. The sales increase was spurred by strong overseas sales. GM sales in Europe rose by 15%, Asian Pacific sales by 16% and Latin America, Africa and the Middle East all posted increases of 22%.
Through the first half of 2007, GM has sold 4.67 million cars, trailing Toyota ’s 4.72 million.

Despite strong overseas sales, GM’s North American sales were down 6%.
