GM plans to use dealerships to upgrade charging infrastructure, accelerate EV adoption
GM plans to eliminate all tailpipe emissions from light-duty vehicles by 2035 – but right now, we don’t have the electrical grid we need to power all the electric vehicles (EVs) that we would need to replace the existing petroleum-powered ones. That’s a big barrier to EV adoption, especially in rural and remote areas. But GM has a plan to overcome this. “We are going to use our dealerships, which are already well-dispersed and distributed, to help us place those chargers and install them within their communities,” said GM Canada President Marissa West for an article by Prof. Karl Moore for Forbes.com. “Dealers know best how our customers can use the charging infrastructure.”
