General Motors (GM) of Mexico announced an investment of $1 billion over the next two years for its local manufacturing operations, after closing 2025 with “solid results.”
The automotive company maintained that it “remains firm” in the country by 2026, in contrast to the uncertainty that was generated months ago by reports about an eventual exit or cuts in operations.
The announcement was made by the president and general director of GM of Mexico, Paco Garza, who noted that the investment is part of a “new strategy” aligned with government efforts to strengthen the domestic market and future projects focused on domestic demand.
“We closed 2025 with solid results” and “we will continue working on future projects focused on domestic demand, reinforcing our long-term commitment to Mexico,” he stated.
According to a statement, GM concluded 2025 with 198,153 units sold, which allowed it to remain the second brand in the industry with 12.2% market share.
In December alone, sales grew 11.2% compared to the same month in 2024, driven by a 10% increase in Chevrolet and 27.7% in the Premium channel, with brands such as Buick, GMC and Cadillac.

The company also highlighted commercial milestones in the statement, such as Buick and GMC, which achieved their best annual sales in history, while Cadillac recorded its best performance since 2017.
GM also reported leadership in segments, such as large SUVs, concentrating 78.8% of sales in this category, in addition to small vans (52.7%), large luxury SUVs (39%) and compact pickups (38.5%).
The message of permanence occurs after episodes of public noise in 2025, when the government came out to rule out closures or a withdrawal of GM, amid reports about production adjustments and the transfer of some models to the United States starting in 2027.
GM indicated that more information on investment and specific manufacturing projects will be released later.
“General Motors de México will continue to drive innovation in 2026, strengthening its presence in key segments and moving towards a more sustainable future,” GM concluded in its note.
