GM CEO Mary Barra On The Politics Of EVs, The Future Of AVs, and Moving Away From China
30 Oct 2024 | Abstracted from Tech Crunch
"I never thought the propulsion of a vehicle would become a political issue...former President...has railed against EVs and claimed, wrongly, that there is a mandate...General Motors's goal is to just keep providing great vehicles, keep supporting the charging infrastructure to be more robust...[customers] want affordability with the right range. And that sweet spot is really 300 miles
"... competing for EV market share in China is a "race to the bottom".
