Alexander Black+FollowGM’s Mary Barra Isn’t Hitting the BrakesMary Barra is doubling down on EVs, even as other automakers slam on the brakes. She’s not buying the plug-in hybrid hype and says the real game-changer will be cheaper batteries and more charging stations. Even with EV sales cooling and rivals ditching electric plans, GM’s still rolling out new models (hello, affordable Chevy Bolt). Oh, and retirement? Not on her radar—Barra’s still got big plans for GM’s future. #Cars #GM #MaryBarra72Share
derek12+FollowInside GM’s bold new Detroit HQGM’s return to Woodward Avenue isn’t just a move—it’s a statement.

laura54+FollowGM’s $7B Oops: Why Your Next Car Might Not Be ElectricGM just took a $7.1 billion hit after slowing down on electric cars, thanks to fewer tax breaks and less pressure to go green. The big drama? EVs were supposed to be the future, but with fewer perks, fewer people are buying. If you were eyeing an electric ride, expect fewer options and maybe higher prices for a while. Still, GM says they’re not out of the EV game yet—just hitting pause to regroup. Would you still go electric? #Business #ElectricVehicles #GM40Share
James Smith+FollowGM’s $6B EV Gamble Backfires HardGM just revealed it’s taking a $6 billion hit from its electric vehicle push—yep, even more than Ford’s massive $5.1B loss. Turns out, jumping into EVs before buyers were ready (and after losing that sweet $7,500 tax credit) was a pricey move. EV sales dropped 43% in just one quarter! Add in a $1.1B charge from China competition, and GM’s year is looking rough. Will the new Bolt EV save the day? Stay tuned! #Cars #GM #ElectricVehicles11Share
Tristan Richards+FollowGM’s $6B EV Oops: What It Means for YouGM just hit the brakes on its electric car dreams, taking a $6 billion hit after EV demand fizzled and tax credits disappeared. If you were eyeing a new electric ride, don’t worry—GM’s still selling EVs, but expect fewer new models and maybe some deals as they clear out inventory. The big shift? Hybrids are back in style, so don’t be surprised if your next car runs on both gas and battery. #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #GM21Share
Keith Bass+FollowGM plant closure stuns Midwest townA $102 million GM factory just went dark, instantly wiping out 1,700 union jobs and sending shockwaves through the heart of Michigan’s auto belt. For families and small businesses, this isn’t just a corporate move—it’s an economic blackout. The ripple effect is real: local diners, hardware stores, and even schools are bracing for the fallout. With more layoffs hitting Detroit’s EV lines and battery plants, it’s clear the region’s auto future is on shaky ground. How do you think communities can bounce back when their economic anchor disappears overnight? #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #GM01Share
Leah Pierce+FollowGM’s $5B Tariff Drama = Pricier Cars?GM just got slammed with up to $5 billion in tariffs for building cars in Mexico, and now they’re moving production back to the US. The catch? Those cost savings from Mexico are gone, so get ready for higher car prices at the dealership. It’s not just a business move—this is a huge shakeup for workers, buyers, and the whole auto industry. Looks like trade wars hit your wallet next time you car shop! #Cars #GM #Tariffs30Share
jwhite+FollowGM’s Next-Gen V8 Trick: Smarter Cylinder ShutoffGM is cooking up a new way to save gas on their classic V8 engines! They just filed a patent for a hydraulic system that can shut off cylinders by disconnecting the rocker arms—no fancy lifters or cam changes needed. It’s all tucked into the rocker shaft, making it easier to build and (hopefully) more reliable. Could this be the next big thing for GM trucks? Stay tuned! #Cars #CarOwnership #GM01Share
Russell Cooke+FollowTesla Exec Eyes GM’s Top Spot?GM just brought in Sterling Anderson, a former Tesla and Aurora exec, to shake up their EV and software game. Word is, if he nails it, he could be the next CEO—yep, Mary Barra’s job might be up for grabs. No official succession plan yet, but Anderson’s track record with Tesla’s Model X and self-driving tech has people talking. Could GM’s future be in his hands? Stay tuned for some major changes! #JobCareer #GM #Tesla10Share
Vanessa Brown+FollowTesla’s Autopilot Boss Might Run GM?!GM is test-driving a bold move: they might hand the keys to their next CEO to Sterling Anderson, the guy who helped build Tesla’s Autopilot. Why does this matter? If Anderson takes the wheel, expect GM to go full throttle on smart tech and self-driving features. For car buyers, this could mean more Tesla-like updates and smarter rides from a classic brand. The auto world is definitely watching this test drive! #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #GM10Share
