GM Confirms Hybrid Push Amid EV Slump, Targets 2027 Launch
General Motors has confirmed plans to introduce hybrid models into its U.S. lineup, acknowledging that customer demand for hybrids is surging while all-electric vehicle (EV) sales decline. Although GM maintains an all-electric long-term vision, it is pivoting to meet current market needs. Analysts expect the first plug-in hybrids to arrive by late 2027 or early 2028, covering models from the Equinox to the Silverado. This move follows a 5.5% drop in GM’s third-quarter sales and a 23% year-over-year increase in U.S. hybrid sales, which now account for 16.3% of the market compared to 5.8% for EVs.
