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.

Former St. John’s men’s basketball coach Mike Anderson is seeking $45.6 million in a lawsuit against the university, claiming he was fired so the school could avoid paying his buyout and instead use that money to hire current coach Rick Pitino. Anderson was fired earlier this year after his fourth season at St. John’s, and the university reportedly tried to offer him a buyout for less than the $11.4 million left on his contract. St. John’s denied Anderson’s claims and said it will defend them in arbitration.
