US Auto Sales Take a Dip: GM's Q2 2026 Numbers Reveal a Shift in the Market General Motors has reported a 4.2% decline in its US auto sales for the second quarter of 2026, marking a significant slowdown in the industry's growth. The decline is largely attributed to a drop in demand for electric vehicles (EVs), which had been driving sales in recent years. Despite the downturn, GM remains optimistic about the long-term prospects of EVs, citing continued investments in new models and technologies. As the US market adjusts to changing consumer preferences and regulatory requirements, industry analysts will be closely watching GM's performance to gauge the resilience of the EV sector.
