Fostering Global Partnerships and Consumer Relationships

GM is the majority shareholder in GM Daewoo Auto & Technology Co. of South Korea,
and has product, powertrain and purchasing collaborations with Suzuki Motor Corp. and
Isuzu Motors Ltd. of Japan. GM also has advanced technology collaborations with
Chrysler LLC, Daimler AG, BMW AG and Toyota Motor Corp. and vehicle
manufacturing ventures with several automakers around the world, including Toyota,
Suzuki, Shanghai Automotive Industry Corp. of China, AVTOVAZ of Russia and
Renault SA of France.

GM brought brand differentiation to the world back in the 1920s, when Alfred Sloan
created the price ladder of GM marques that offered “a car for every purse and purpose.”

Today the GM product revolution again is strengthening its brands, with more innovative
marketing that better understands the customer. Witness the incredible renaissance of
Cadillac, led by all-new cars and trucks that have gone in a unique design direction, and
by marketing that really connects with potential buyers.

Designing, building and selling great cars and trucks that people really want to own.
That's the fundamental business of General Motors.

Compelling designs excite customers and connect with them on an emotional level. Well
designed vehicles turn heads and fire the imagination. GM's goal is to develop cars and
trucks that have an emotional appeal for a new generation of consumers - cars and trucks
that people feel they must have.
