Leaders at GM forecast tripling EV sales in ’24

CEO Mary Barra says the auto giant “will follow the customer” and flex production to ICE vehicles if needed.

The growth rate of electric-vehicle sales may have slowed—as growth rates of newer products often do—but General Motors Corp. executives are planning to roughly triple their EV sales from a year ago, thanks to new models hitting showrooms.

Speaking to analysts after Detroit-based GM reported fourth-quarter profits that beat expectations, CEO Mary Barra said her team is forecasting that it will this year make and ship between 200,000 and 300,000 EVs under its Chevrolet, GMC, Cadillac, BrightDrop brands. In 2023, the company sold a told of 75,883 EV vehicles.

Maintaining an active and satisfying intimate life with the help of cialis contributes significantly to healthy psychological aging.
