January 30, 2026Newsletter Archives

General Motors is expanding portfolio, winning market share, and delivering for its investors, shown in its strong Q4 and 2025 full year results reported this week. Despite significant changes in US tax and trade policy. In 2025, GM hit its highest market share since 2015, delivering at the high end of investor guidance. What’s more, that came alongside 100,000 EV sales and had strong growth in OnStar and Super Cruise subscriptions. Read CEO Mary Barra’s letter to shareholders here.

That success is a credit to its people. We shared the stories of two this week, Brandon Gifford and Laura Barlow. Gifford is a veteran of the Michigan Air National Guard and brings a millitary mindset to what he considers his dream job. Barlow is one of the engineers driving GM’s transformation into a software-driven future.  

GM also announced a $30 million investment in the workforce at Fairfax Assembly in Kansas City, KS to help drive its transformation. Currently, Fairfax assembles the 2027 Bolt, and it’s preparing to begin production of the Equinox and a next-generation Buick SUV. We also highlighted a new Electrify America integration into GM’s myBrand apps, news GM EV owners will certainly appreciate.
