Exclusive-GM cuts output at one of main EV factories, citing weak demand
Sep 4, 2025 5:59 AM

DETROIT (Reuters) -General Motors is cutting output at one of its main electric-vehicle factories, the latest automaker to pull back on EVs as U.S. President Donald Trump's administration yanks federal support for green cars.

GM will stop production of two electric Cadillac SUVs at its assembly plant in Spring Hill, Tennessee, during the month of December, according to a person familiar with the matter and communications to GM employees viewed by Reuters. 

The plant produces the midsize Cadillac Lyriq - a relative hit and one of GM's top-selling EVs - and the Vistiq, a larger electric SUV.

GM also plans to significantly curtail production of those vehicles during the first five months of next year by temporarily laying off one of its two shifts of workers, the sources said.

"General Motors is making strategic production adjustments in alignment with expected slower EV industry growth and customer demand by leveraging our flexible ICE and EV manufacturing footprint," the company said in a statement in response to a Reuters request for comment.
