have recently had to concede price increases due to critical parts and material shortages, there are a slew of more modestly priced models on the way. General Motors appears to be taking advantage of its Ultium one-for-all BEV architecture, for example, as company President Mark Reuss recently announced that astarting in “the low $30s” would arrive next year.
