May not a good month for Chevy Cobalt sales, GM says

It was the worst May ever for sales of the Chevrolet Cobalt.

General Motors said today that it sold 12,764 Cobalts in the U.S. last month.

GM had never sold fewer than 21,000 Cobalts in May since the model was launched in fall 2004 from its Lordstown complex.

Last month’s results were down 52 percent from a year earlier. In May 2008, Cobalt sales reached 26,702, which was its best result for that month.
