DETROIT — General Motors on Monday reported a 5.5% increase in its annual U.S. sales in 2025, despite a 6.9% decrease during the fourth quarter.

The Detroit automaker’s sales results were driven last year by incremental sales of EVs as well as gains in large SUVs and entry-level vehicles such as the Buick Envista.

GM’s 2025 sales are expected to be among the standouts for the U.S. automotive industry, which Cox Automotive expects to have risen about 2% compared with 2024.

Other U.S. automakers also reported 2025 sales. Toyota Motor‘s sales were up 8%; Hyundai achieved a third consecutive year of record sales with an 8.4% increase and Honda Motor was up 0.5%.

Chrysler parent Stellantis was down 3.3% as it executes a U.S. turnaround plan. Notably, Stellantis’ Jeep brand — which was up less than 1% last year — achieved its first U.S. annual sales gain since 2018.

“With consecutive quarterly sales increases and market share growth, it’s clear that we are taking the right steps to reset our business in the U.S.,” Jeff Kommor, head of Stellantis U.S. retail sales, said in a release. “There is still work to do, but we made progress this year with a diversified powertrain lineup.”
