General Motors Gets Into the Delivery Business With BrightDrop

Carmaker will build technology, including a new all-electric van, for clients including FedEx

That timeline has accelerated since the brand announced its electric mandate in 2017 (the previous goal was 20 EVs by 2023), and General Motors chairman and president Mary Barra gave a look at how the company is planning to get there during a keynote presentation at CES 2021 this morning.
