GM Sees Strong EV Sales Growth In 2025 - CleanTechnica

General Motors (GM) reported strong growth in electric vehicle (EV) sales in the U.S. during the first five months of 2025, positioning itself as the second-largest EV seller nationwide with over 62,000 units sold across its Chevrolet, Cadillac, and GMC brands. Chevrolet alone sold more than 37,000 EVs through May, surpassing Ford and becoming the fastest-growing domestic EV brand in the first quarter. May marked GM’s second-best month ever for EV sales, following a 94% year-over-year increase in Q1. GM’s U.S. EV market share doubled to about 15.5% in early Q2, nearing its overall national market share of 17%. GM attributes this success to its broad EV portfolio, including the popular and affordable Chevrolet Equinox EV, which accounted for over 21,800 sales so far this year. More than half of Chevrolet’s EV sales were conquest sales, meaning customers new to the brand. GM also highlighted its expanding charging infrastructure, with access to over 250,000 public chargers across North America and partnerships to increase fast-charging locations nationwide. Notably, GM’s EVs now come standard with NACS charging ports compatible with Tesla Superchargers, although the company did not emphasize this in its communications. The company emphasizes that many EV owners remain loyal once they switch, especially after investing in home charging setups, which can often be as simple as a standard 120-volt outlet for typical daily driving needs.
