DETROIT, July 28 (Reuters) - General Motors Corp. said on Friday that it sold 2.4 million vehicles globally in the second quarter, a 8.7 percent increase over the previous quarter.
GM said its year-to-date sales were down 2.3 percent to 4.6 million compared to the same period a year ago, largely because of last year's popular employee discount incentive program in North America, which boosted sales, and lower fleet sales in Europe.
