"The automaker encountered freight delays, software glitches, and other issues that delayed timelines....To make matters worse, GM ended production of its best-selling Chevy Bolt EV at the end of 2023, which accounted for 62,045 or over 81% of EV sales last year...CEO Mary Barra said 2024 is the 'year of execution' as GM looks to get back on track.

"GM sold fewer than 14,000 Ultium-based EVs in 2023, including the Cadillac Lyriq (9,154) and GMC Hummer (3,244)."
