$60,000 Cadillac Lyriq Drives GM's Q2 EV Sales After Bolt Is Discontinued
$60,000 Cadillac Lyriq Drives GM's Q2 EV Sales After Bolt Is Discontinued
Detroit-based automaker General Motors Co. (NYSE:GM) said on Tuesday that the company has sold nearly 22,000 EVs in the U.S. in the second quarter, thanks to the rising popularity of its Cadillac Lyriq SUV.
底特律車廠，通用汽車公司（NYSE：GM）表示，由於其凱迪拉克Lyriq SUV極受歡迎，該公司在第二季度已在美國售出近22,000輛新能源車。
What Happened: GM sold 21,930 EVs in the second quarter, marking a jump of over 40% from the corresponding quarter of last year.
發生了什麼：通用汽車公司在第二季度售出了21,930輛新能源汽車，比去年同期增長了超過40%。
The sales were mostly buoyed by the Cadillac Lyriq SUV starting at nearly $60,000, of which the company sold nearly 7,300 units, making up for the year-on-year drop in sales of the Chevrolet Bolt which the company discontinued in late 2023. GM sold only 1,374 units of the Bolt in the second quarter, down from the 13,959 sold in the second quarter of 2023.
這些銷售主要得益於起售價近60,000美元的凱迪拉克Lyriq SUV車型。該公司共售出近7,300輛Lyriq SUV車型，彌補了雪佛蘭Bolt車型銷量同比下降的缺口。該車型已於2023年底停產。通用汽車公司在第二季度僅售出1,374輛Bolt車型，而去年同期則售出了13,959輛。
The newly introduced Equinox EV sold over 1000 units, marking a good start for the vehicle which went on sale in late May.
新推出的Equinox EV上市後在五月底售出了超過1000輛，是一個良好的開端。
| VEHICLE NAME | Q2 SALES IN U.S. |
| Chevrolet Bolt | 1,374 |
| Cadillac Lyriq | 7,294 |
| GMC Hummer EV | 2,929 |
| Chevrolet Silverado EV | 2,196 |
| Chevrolet Blazer EV | 6,634 |
| Chevrolet Equinox EV | 1,013 |
| Brightdrop | 490 |
| TOTAL | 21,930 |
| 車型名稱 | 美國第二季度銷量 |
| 雪佛蘭Bolt | 1,374 |
| 凱迪拉克Lyriq | 7,294 |
| GMC Hummer EV | 2,929 |
| 雪佛蘭Silverado EV | 2,196 |
| 雪佛蘭Blazer EV | 6,634 |
| 雪佛蘭Equinox EV | 1,013 |
| Brightdrop | 490 |
| TOTAL | 21,930 |
Despite the rise in sales, electric vehicles still contribute to merely 3.15% of the company's total vehicle sales in the country which touched 696,086 units in the quarter.
儘管銷售增長，但新能源汽車的銷量仍僅佔該公司全美國696,086輛車的總銷量的3.15%。
Comparing With The Bigshot: EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) on Tuesday also reported vehicle delivery numbers for the second quarter. The company delivered 443,956 vehicles in the second quarter globally, marking a 4.8% drop from last year but still beating the consensus estimate. Tesla does not segment its vehicle deliveries by geography.
與行業翹楚相比：新能源汽車巨頭特斯拉公司（納斯達克：TSLA）也在本週二公佈了第二季度車輛交付數據。該公司在第二季度全球範圍內交付了443,956輛車，雖比去年同期下降了4.8%，但仍超過了市場預期。特斯拉不會區分地理區域報告其車輛交付數據。
Tesla's mass-market offerings Model 3 and Modey Y account for a whopping majority of the total Q2 sales, with other, more premium offerings accounting for merely 5% of the overall sales. The company has three higher-end EV offerings- Model S, X, and Cybertruck. The higher-end version of the Cybertruck is priced at nearly $100,000.
特斯拉的大衆市場車型Model 3和Model Y佔據了第二季度總銷量的絕大多數，而其他更高端的車型僅佔總銷量的5%。該公司還有三款更高端的電動車型：Model S、X和Cybertruck。Cybertruck的高端版本定價近10萬美元。
Why It Matters: While Tesla is relying on its mass market, cheaper EV offerings to buoy its EV sales, GM is relying on its pricier Lyriq after discontinuing its cheap Bolt EV starting at $41,542.
儘管通用汽車公司在停產成本更低的Bolt EV（起售價爲41,542美元）後，通過其更昂貴的Lyriq SUV推動其新能源汽車銷售，而特斯拉則依靠其大衆市場、價格更爲便宜的電動汽車推動其銷售。
The newly launched Equinox EV is among the cheaper of GM's current EV offerings starting at $41,900. While off to a good start, it is still too early to gauge customers' reaction to the vehicle.
新推出的Equinox EV被看作是通用汽車公司當前家族中價格更爲便宜的電動車型之一，起售價近41,900美元。雖然該車型售出良好，但要評估消費者對此車型的反應仍然爲時過早。
GM's other EV offerings cater to higher-end EV customers. The GMC Hummer EV and Silverado EV, for instance, start at nearly $100,000. Even the Chevrolet Blazer EV SUV starts at $48,800, higher than the Model Y which starts at $44,990.
通用汽車公司的其他電動車型面向更高端電動車客戶。例如，GMC Hummer EV和Silverado EV的起售價均近10萬美元。即使是Chevrolet Blazer EV SUV車型的起售價也高於Model Y的起售價，後者的起售價爲44,990美元。
