General Motors Co. reclaimed the top spot in U.S. auto sales from rival Toyota Motor Corp. in 2022 as it was able to better meet strong demand for cars and trucks despite industry-wide supply disruptions.

Shares of GM rose 2.7 percent in afternoon trade on Wednesday to $34.75, after the company posted a 2.5 percent rise in 2022 sales to 2,274,088 vehicles, higher than Toyota’s 2,108,458 units, in a closely watched race.
