Let's breakdown the numbers and look at ownership sales vs rental/fleet - here are the stats another member posted on a thread already dedicated to this dicsussion (credit - hotlap):
Retail ATP's 2018 Q1-Q2 (JDPin)
Camaro: $40,814
Challenger: $38,241 (-$2,573)
Mustang: $34,798 (-$6,016)
Retail Sales 2018 Q1-Q2
Mustang: 29,548
Challenger: 25,783 (-3,765)
Camaro: 24,809 (4,739)
Total Sales 2018 Q1-Q2
Mustang 42,428
Challenger 37,367 (-5,061)
Camaro 25,380 (-17,048)
Percentage of Total Sales that are Fleet/Rental 2018 Q1-Q2
Camaro 2.2%
Mustang 30.4% (+28.1%)
Challenger 31% (+28.8%)
Compared to 2107 totals
Retail ATP's 2017 (JDPin)
Camaro: $39,514
Challenger: $35,498 (-$4,016)
Mustang: $33,792 (-$5,722)
Retail Sales 2017
Camaro: 65,222
Mustang: 60,581 (-4641)
Challenger: 45,821 (-19,401)
Total Sales 2017
Mustang 81,866
Camaro 67,940 (-13,926)
Challenger 64,537 (-17,329)
Percentage of Total Sales that are Fleet/Rental 2017
Camaro 4%
Mustang 26% (+22%)
Challenger 29% (+25%)
Retail ATP's 2017 (JDPin)
Camaro: $39,514
Challenger: $35,498 (-$4,016)
Mustang: $33,792 (-$5,722)
Percentage of Total Sales that are Fleet/Rental 2017
Camaro 4%
Mustang 26% (+22%)
Challenger 29% (+25%)
With a little math, remove the rental sales from the Q1-Q2 sales figures:
Mustang (-30.4%) = 29, 529
Camaro (-2.2%) = 24, 821
Challenger (-31%) = 25, 783
So yes, the Camaro is behind in sales for Q1-Q2 in 2018...but Al O's words are misleading, if GM wants to compete in sales volumes, they need to start with offering attractive rental and fleet packages as that is where the majority of the difference lies.
