This week General Motors announced it is remarketing its 14th million vehicle at Southern Auto Auction in East Windsor, Conn.– a significant milestone for the company, as well as the auction.
“The 14 millionth remarketed GM vehicle is a milestone that signifies our commitment to providing dealers and customers quality used vehicles,” said Ed Peper, general manager, GM Fleet and Commercial Operations. “This is an important part of our business. High residuals translate to greater vehicle value, which benefits our dealers and customers of both pre-owned and new vehicles.”
