LORDSTOWN – Domestic sales of the Chevrolet Cruze advanced slightly last month, driven by deliveries of the small car’s Mexican-made hatchback version.
There were 15,268 Cruzes sold across the country in September, according to sales figures General Motors released today.
Of those, 12,739 were Cruze sedans made by local workers at the GM Assembly Complex in Lordstown. The other 2,529 were hatchbacks made in Mexico, but sold in the United States.
