While passenger EVs are critical to General Motors ’ ( GM ’ s ) transition to zero-emissions , the company also owns BrightDrop , a business that delivers innovative , safe , and efficient logistics solutions .
The company has already shared its expertise with big names in the industry , particularly in the US , as it supplies its BrightDrop Zevo 400s and 600s to Walmart and FedEx for first and last-mile deliveries , leveraging cloud-based software . The EV was first released at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January 2021 and has since received US $ 800mn investment from GM .
