The New General Motors Company Launches Today

New GM to Focus on Customers, Cars and Culture

GM gets back to the business of building great cars and trucks, serving customer needs
New company created from GM's strongest assets
Four core brands backed by the nation's largest and strongest dealer network
Streamlined organization on a global basis for faster decisions, sharper focus on the customer
Commitment to open communications

DETROIT - The new General Motors Company began operations today with a new corporate structure, a stronger balance sheet, and a renewed commitment to make the customer the center of everything the new GM does.
"Today marks a new beginning for General Motors, one that will allow every employee, including me, to get back to the business of designing, building and selling great cars and trucks and serving the needs of our customers," said Fritz Henderson, president and CEO. "We are deeply appreciative for the support we have received during this historic transformation, and we will work hard to repay this trust by building a successful new General Motors."
Created from the old GM's strongest operations in an asset sale approved by the bankruptcy court on July 5, the new GM is built on:

Four core brands in the U.S. and the largest, strongest dealer network in the country,
A fresh lineup of Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick and GMC cars, trucks and crossovers, each with leading-edge designs and technologies that matter to both consumers and the environment,
A competitive cost structure, a cleaner balance sheet, and a stronger liquidity position that will enable GM to invest in new products, key technologies, and its future,
A winning culture focused on customers and products.
"One thing we have learned from the last 100 days is that GM can move quickly and decisively," said Henderson. "Today, we take the intensity, decisiveness and speed of the past several months and transfer it from the triage of the bankruptcy process to the creation and operation of a new General Motors.

"Business as usual is over at GM," said Henderson. "Today starts a new era for General Motors and everyone associated with the company. Going forward, the new General Motors is fully committed to listening to customers, responding to consumer and market trends, and empowering the people closest to the customer to make the decisions. Our goal is to build more of the cars, trucks, and crossovers that customers want, and to get them to market faster than ever before."

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (July 3, 2009)

Hendrickcars.com has selected the winner of the Indy Dream Weekend, which grants one fan and a guest VIP treatment at this month’s Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Nathan Tilford, of Orangevale, Calif., was chosen randomly from 6,602 entrants, who registered on Hendrickcars.com between May 23 and June 30 for a chance to win the all-access weekend made possible by Hendrickcars.com and Hendrick Motorsports.

“We were pleased with the participation in this sweepstakes especially considering the Eldora race was postponed until September 9th due to weather. This is a great opportunity for

Mr. Tilford to have a behind the scenes view of one of NASCAR’s most winning and popular teams. Hendrickcars.com is happy to have helped make this trip available to our Web site visitors and NASCAR fans,” said Chris Little of Hendrick Automotive Group.

As part of the VIP treatment, Tilford and his guest will get to meet two-time Indy winner and three-time NASCAR Sprint Cup Series champion Jimmie Johnson and watch the race from a trackside suite during the July 25-26 Hendrickcars.com Indy Dream Weekend. Tilford also receives airfare and hotel accommodations plus a tour of the garage area and a Hendrick Motorsports team transporter. And if a Hendrick Motorsports team gets to “kiss the bricks” July 26, Tilford and his guest will join in the Victory Lane festivities.
