Portfolio Pulse from Erica Kollmann
GM CEO Mary Barra announced that 2024 is pivotal for GM's EV growth, with plans to launch six new EV models and expectations of EV profitability. Despite potential industry decline, GM anticipates increased EV sales, backed by 100,000 orders for EV pickups. GM's flexibility with factories that can switch between ICE and EV production, and increased plug-in hybrid production, positions it well for changing demands and regulations.
