General Motors is striving to surpass Tesla as the world’s leading electric vehicle manufacturer by 2025, and it’s making steady progress toward that goal. The company recently announced that Cadillac will unveil three new fully electric models later this year, with plans to start production in 2024.
Several years ago, General Motors pledged to launch 30 new EVs by 2025 and produce one million units annually by that same year. According to CEO Mary Barra, the lineup will include many affordable EVs for the masses, filling a gap in Tesla’s offerings, which are mostly luxury vehicles.

While General Motors’ EV rollout began with high-end models, such as the Cadillac Lyriq electric SUV and the enormous and pricey GMC Hummer EV pickup truck, the automaker has confirmed that it will launch an electric Silverado pickup truck, as well as electric versions of the Equinox and Blazer SUVs.
This week, Cadillac Global Vice President Ron Harvey confirmed that the automaker plans to introduce three more EVs later this year, with production slated to begin in 2024. Harvey did not provide details about the vehicles, but he noted that some of them will be produced and sold globally, which could affect rollout timelines in different markets.

Although Cadillac has filed trademark paperwork for several models, including the Ascendiq, Escalade IQL, Lumistiq, Optiq, Symboliq, and Vistiq, Harvey did not specify the names of the upcoming EVs.
