“The foundation that GM has established coupled with Kurt’s exceptional battery expertise in leading battery chemistry development, establishing partnerships, building out supply chains and partnering closely with teams that have developed leading battery systems will help us achieve our electrification goals and position GM as a leader in EV technology,” said Reuss.

As in all successful businesses GM’s EV and Global Warming strategy hasn’t changed, AutoInformed observes. GM has adjusted its tactics. GM has and will go forward with a strong and profitable internal combustion engine vehicle business. It is also forecasting growth there. Electric vehicles ran across a bumpy road last year, and GM wasn’t unique in the industry. However, this and subsequent years are going to be an important. GM said last year that by mid-year 2024 or sooner EV battery and supply constraints will evaporate. The GM EV portfolio is getting stronger. The progress in the so-called software defined vehicle continues.
