General Motors has big plans for electrification over the next few years, and we’re not talking just hybrid technology. The automaker says it will introduce at least 20 new all-electric vehicles by 2023.

The first two EVs will be based off knowledge gained from the Bolt, GM announced today. These vehicles will launch within the next 18 months.

“General Motors believes in an all-electric future,” said Mark Reuss, GM executive vice president of Product Development, Purchasing and Supply Chain, in a release. “Although that future won’t happen overnight, GM is committed to driving increased usage and acceptance of electric vehicles through no-compromise solutions that meet our customers’ needs.”

GM has refined its electrified lineup over time. In addition to the Bolt, GM also currently offers the Chevrolet Volt and Cadillac CT6 plug-in hybrids. Other models like the Chevrolet Spark EV and Cadillac ELR have been axed.

GM envisions a future with zero crashes, zero emissions, and zero congestion. When it comes to emissions, battery electric vehicles are just part of the solution. Once again, GM reiterated that it’s pursuing fuel cell technology. Earlier this year, the automaker announced a joint venture with Honda to produce next-generation fuel cell systems for future vehicles. Production on the advanced fuel cell systems is expected to start around 2020.

Meanwhile, GM is testing the waters with a four-wheel-steer fuel cell concept called SURUS. Short for Silent Utility Rover Universal Superstructure, SURUS uses a heavy-duty truck frame and two electric motors. Its architecture paves the way for future fuel cell trucks, delivery vehicles, and ambulances.

Has GM built any durable fossil fuels powered vehicle before jumping gun into electric ones?



At times I wonder why people claim Americans are ahead in technology when they can't build ordinary reliable vehicle.... Radarada...


Their Jeep a disastrous endeavor
Chrysler a sorry tale
Ford... Programmed to fail at a particular mileage...

American cars are purposefully built to depreciate quickly. They want you to buy a new one soon. It's a business strategy called planned obsolescence.

It doesn't mean they don't know how to build long lasting vehicles.

I kinda agree with you. American can produce good durable cars even as the Germans. Its commonplace to see mustangs, Chevys, camaros, buicks, Cadillacs, dodges dating from the 60s and 70s on american roads. Plus they require less expertise to fix...(most Americans can fix cars though).
American cars just don't do well in bad environments and roads like Nigeria and they consume a lot of fuel.
If an American car doesn't last, its likely cuz of planned obsolence by its manufacturers....

Few times, i whether what the North and their companion in the South are still doing with oil? This commodity is going already you can see it coming in less than 20 years. Just recent, the city of Dubai introduce electric cars for taxi service. And more and more car companies globally are diverting to electric cars with some countries targeting to end fuel cars 10years from now. It is happening before our eyes Nigerians pursue development and leave politics of religion and tribalism..They no go hear...

Why do you mock yourself? 5 years and you open the sepulchre you call mouth and say it's durable.

Show me a 30 years old American vehicle on Nigeria roads and get a handsome reward for each one. I don't have time for jawjaw with you boy.
