GM unveils new gas-powered Cadillac models as EV demand cools

General Motors CEO Mary Barra said the next-generation Cadillac lineup will include gas-powered versions of the CT5 sedan, XT5 midsize SUV and the discontinued three-row XT6 SUV, as demand for electric vehicles continues to soften. The move signals GM pulling back from its earlier all-electric push.

General Motors is recalibrating its product strategy as demand for electric vehicles grows more slowly than expected. CEO Mary Barra said Tuesday that the next-generation Cadillac lineup will include gas-powered versions of the CT5 sedan, the XT5 midsize SUV and the previously discontinued three-row XT6 SUV.

The move marks a visible retreat from GM's earlier all-electric vision for Cadillac, announced just a few years ago. The automaker is adjusting its product planning in response to slowing EV sales and shifting consumer preferences.

Rival automakers have similarly been revisiting their electric-vehicle investment timelines in recent months. Analysts say GM's decision adds to a broader industry pattern of partial pullbacks from EV-only roadmaps toward internal-combustion models.
