The price increases average about 1.5%.
“This targeted price increase is designed to partially recover ever-increasing commodity costs,” said GM North America sales chief Mark LaNeve. Price hikes are mostly around $100 to $500 depending on model but the new Chevrolet Malibu and the Saturn Aura in “competitive” segements are unaffected. The Cadillac ZLR went up $1,500.
GM said the price increase would not affect vehicles already in dealer inventory.
