SEOUL, June 4 (UPI) -- General Motors Korea's sales in May jumped more than 20% despite concerns that the automaker may leave South Korea amid U.S. tariff pressures.
The automaker said Tuesday that it sold 50,029 units last month, up 20.13% compared to April. The Chevrolet Trax Crossover and its derivatives posted record monthly sales of 32,232 units, up 30.12%.
The Chevrolet Trailblazer also cruised well, logging global sales of 16,389 units, up 16.26% month-on-month.
The solid performance was comparable to the struggle of its local rivals. The country's major carmakers like Hyundai Motor, Kia, and Renault Samsung saw their sales decline in May.
