Every Automaker’s EV Plans Through 2035 And Beyond
There’s no longer any doubt that the auto industry is going electric. Every international automaker is introducing battery cars, and plug-in hybrid options are increasingly part of model lines. But some auto companies have gone further, and actually set dates for when they will produce only “electrified” cars (batteries and hybrids) and/or pure EVs. Others have set dates certain when they’re going to stop developing internal-combustion engines. Some have already stopped.
Here, in alphabetical order, is a rundown of where all the world’s automakers stand on going electric. Obviously, we’re not including startup companies such as Lucid, Rivian, Bollinger and Fisker. Like Tesla, they’re all-electric from Day One and Job One.
GM...The General says it plans to stop selling gas and diesel vehicles by 2035. GM admits it’s an aspirational goal. But Cadillac is deeply committed. The division said in April that it plans to offer no new models with internal-combustion engines, but will update some existing vehicles. And by 2030, the Cadillac lineup will be all-electric. The first offering will be the Lyriq crossover SUV next year. The electric Hummers, in pickup and SUV form, are coming, with pickup production to begin this fall. Chevrolet also recently updated the Bolt EV, and an electric version of the Silverado truck is coming in 2023 or 2024 with 400 miles of range from its Ultium batteries. GM’s carbon neutrality is planned by 2040.
