Now that the new year has begun and the final numbers are in, it’s time to take a look at the Top 10 Corvette dealers in the United States for 2020.
There’s no doubt that 2020 was a tough year for both GM and Chevrolet dealers. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic that continues to be an issue for us going into the new year, Chevrolet sales – not just Corvettes, took quite a hit for the year.
Even though Chevrolet sales took a hit for the year, according to a GM press release just issued, the fourth quarter proved to be strong for GM overall.
General Motors announced today it sold 771,323 vehicles in the fourth quarter of 2020. Total sales for the quarter were up 5 percent year over year. GM had its best fourth quarter retail sales since 2007, with deliveries up 12 percent. Sales for the calendar year were 2,547,339 units, with total deliveries down 12 percent year over year and retail deliveries down 6 percent.
With automotive assembly plants periodically shutting down due to supply chain issues as the virus spread across the globe, the expected 40,000 in Corvette sales that GM originally predicted came in half at 20,368 2020 Corvettes sold.
Between supply chain issues, production start and stop dates, and continually changing allocation numbers, dealers were left boggled trying to figure out how to meet customer demand for the all new mid-engine C8 Corvette.
This didn’t stop some dealers across the country from working their butts off to make heads or tails out of GM’s production scheduling while keeping salivating Corvette customers at bay with their orders.
The Top 10 Corvette Dealers in the U.S. for 2020 are listed below in order:

If you’re in the market for a new Corvette, or thinking about placing an order you stand a pretty good chance of getting exactly what you want at a reasonable time period with one of these top 10.
A lot of our readers have had fantastic luck with MacMulkin Chevrolet out of Nashua, New Hampshire.
Who would have thought that a small city New Hampshire dealer would become the #2 Corvette dealer in the U.S., but they’ve been trading the #1 spot with Kerbeck Chevrolet since the introduction of the C7 Corvette.
Looking at the sales numbers between the two since 2016, MacMulkin has been closing the gap with Kerbeck each year.
If you’re looking for a no-hassle deal and a top-notch delivery experience, their Corvette Team is second to none when it comes to the Corvette!
