GM has been making a big deal about its investment in new EV battery technology, and it looks like all that hard work is going to pay off. The company’s forthcoming LMR (lithium manganese-rich) formula is heading for the consumer market in 2028, just in time for the automaker to ride a fresh wave of interest in zero-emission mobility in the US.
Separately, the company’s GM Defense branch has contributed advanced battery technology to the forthcoming Pegasus lunar rover engineered by the group Lunar Outpost for the NASA Artemis mission. The high tech association should help GM re-burnish its vehicle electrification cred after a pullback in recent months.
