2026 Chevrolet Bolt (Next-Gen): GM officially brought the Bolt back on the "Ultium" platform this month. By using Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries—which are cheaper and more durable—they’ve kept the starting price near $27,000 before any local tax credits.

Over one thousand laid off at Ultium Lordstown, ohio. Many of the recently formed union workers there backed Trump. Now they are finding out the truth, he's against them. Always has been.

Obama's ATVM PROGRAM:

Tesla $465 Million
Ford $5.9 BILLION
Nissan $1.45 Billion
Ultium Cells $2.5 Billion

Tesla repaid the loan in ful with interest in 3 years
Ford 13 years
Nissan 7 years
UC took the loan in 2022 and hasn't paid it back

Popular EV CUVs:

Huge fall off for the Ultium products after the rebate expired. Coupled with GM's price increases and weak incentives, we may see them fall behind Hyundai and Ford.

Rapid demand destruction for Japanese and German options.

Likely similar thing going on here. Most of Cadillac's volume is the Lyriq which is the larger battery setup on Ultium and Chevy famously did lots of cost cutting for their poverty spec Ultium products, Equinox EV AWD rear motor isn't even actively cooled.

Also the Bolt didn't stop until 2023.

I could certainly see that scenario; it would be 5+ years after the first of the current Ultium #EV models were supposed to have launched. But beyond the sort of general logic of it, any mentions / proof points / articles / other stuff to suggest it's real?

American Fightback: Ford recently announced a $30,000 electric pickup project aimed at 2027, and GM is shifting to "Ultium 2.0" technology to cut battery costs by 60%. Competitiveness won't come from matching China's $10k cars, but by making $30k SUVs and Trucks that are more advanced and reliable.

Presumably writing off investment in Ultium and future battery plant expansion. Pretty incredible 180 from Barra’s vision for the Company.
January 8, 2026 at 9:47 PM
Ultium isn't globally competitive so not much chance, and they're retreating from EVs.
January 6, 2026 at 11:51 PM
It's included in the article, just down the list as they had an EV winter after killing the bolt to artificially raise the price floor, resulting in not much new until the Ultium stuff hit, expect them to be notable when leases end shortly.

GM’s battery biz (incl. Honda Prologue + Acura ZDX) delivered 220k EVs in 2025. A great year, but one I expect we won’t see repeated until at least 2027.

The Ultium brand is dead & Honda has gone its separate way.

A good 2026 for GM would be repeating 2025 (170k EVs) w/o tax credits.

🔌💡🔌🚗
GM has already sold more than 144,000 EVs in 2025.

Add in the Honda/Acura EVs, and GM’s Ultium platform is at ~193,000 units on the year.

Need to see how much things fall off in Q4, but 175,000 for GM EVs and 230,000 for Ultium in 2025 seem like good targets.

They just built some Ionna’s near us so I wanna test the Ultium out on them
December 26, 2025 at 2:49 AM
You’re flipping these. Ultium is GM.
December 24, 2025 at 10:47 AM
Not yet. They're supplied by Ultium, who recycle with us, though.
December 22, 2025 at 3:24 AM
Anyone out there have a V2H setup? EV9 + Quasar 2, Lightning with Charge Station Pro, Ultium with a GM Energy V2H?

Regrets vs going with a Powerwall (+ expansion packs)?
in practical terms it'd probably lease better as well, would fit in my garage a whole lot better...

and it would presumably be compatible with the Wallbox Quasar 2 for V2H (as the EV9 is now and the 2025-on-up EV6/Ioniq 9 will be imminently per Hyundai's recent announcements)
