"GM Introduces Affordable Chevy Trax and Buick Envista Crossovers to Bridge the Gap"
General Motors is addressing affordability concerns by introducing two new crossovers, the Chevrolet Trax and Buick Envista, to fill the gap left by discontinued sedans. The average price of new vehicles has risen significantly, pushing some buyers out of the market. GM's new crossovers are competitively priced and offer sedan-like features with roomier interiors. Executives expect these vehicles to be top-sellers and attract new buyers to the brands. GM's U.S. sales have increased by over 18% in the first half of this year.
