General Motors has extended the halt in production of the GMC Hummer EV and Cadillac Escalade IQ at its Factory Zero plant in Michigan through the end of 2025. The stoppage was originally scheduled from September 2 to October 6, but the timeline was pushed back amid slower growth in the electric-vehicle market and softer consumer demand.About 280 employees will be affected. Output of other models, including the Chevrolet Silverado EV and GMC Sierra EV, will continue unchanged. The Michigan facility currently employs roughly 4,000 people. The decision comes across as a pragmatic recalibration, keeping steady-build programs moving while easing off where interest is cooling.
