GM offers dealer incentives on 2003 Hummer H2
Associated Press
DETROIT - General Motors Corp. is offering dealer incentives on remaining 2003 model year Hummer H2s to help clear them out before the 2004s start arriving next month.
Incentives vary between dealers, who can use the money to lower the nearly $50,000 starting price on the luxury sport utility vehicle or add options, spokesman Pete Ternes said Tuesday.
Ternes declined to offer a range of the amount for the incentives, which GM began offering to dealers Aug. 1. He described the effort as typical for automakers hoping to make room for new models.
Hummers previously had been selling with few dealer incentives. GM sold 2,602 of the H2s in July, a 33 percent jump from the same month a year earlier.
The vehicles have come under increasing criticism from environmentalists concerned about their poor fuel economy. On Friday, they were targeted in a vandalism spree at a California dealership.
