GM Cuts Thousands of EV and Battery Factory Workers
General Motors is laying off thousands of workers across multiple electric vehicle and battery plants in the U.S.
- Around 1,200 employees at the company’s EV factory in Detroit, Michigan are being placed on “indefinite layoff”
- Further cuts and temporary layoffs are being made at GM’s Ultium Cells battery factories in Ohio and Tennessee
GM will idle its battery factories starting on January 5, with plans to resume production in the middle of 2026.
The job cuts come just a few days after GM announced layoffs to some of its white-collar workforce, and announced a $1.6 billion hit as it reworks its electric vehicle plans.
GM also recently ended its BrightDrop commercial electric van program.
