GM results and forecast top Wall Street targets thanks to gas-powered trucks and SUVs | CBC News

General Motors announced its fourth-quarter 2024 results and a strong 2025 earnings forecast, surpassing analyst predictions largely due to robust consumer demand for its expensive gasoline-powered trucks and SUVs. The average vehicle price stood at $50,000. Despite anticipating a slight drop in pricing power and gas vehicle sales in 2025, GM expects to narrow its losses in the EV sector, reorganize its China operations for better results, and save costs by halting its robotaxi project. Projected net income exceeds market expectations, though potential regulatory changes pose risks.
