About


We envision a future of zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion, and we have committed ourselves to leading the way toward this future.

General Motors has been pushing the limits of transportation and technology for over 100 years. Today, we are in the midst of a transportation revolution. And we have the ambition, the talent and the technology to realize the safer, better and more sustainable world we want.

As an open, inclusive company, we’re also creating an environment where everyone feels welcomed and valued for who they are. One team, where all ideas are considered and heard, where everyone can contribute to their fullest potential, with a culture based in respect, integrity, accountability and equality.

Our team brings wide-ranging perspectives and experiences to solving the complex transportation challenges of today and tomorrow.

Headquartered in Detroit, Michigan, GM is:

  • Over 180,000 people
  • Serving 6 continents
  • Across 23 time zones
  • Speaking 70 languages

At General Motors, innovation is our north star. As the first automotive company to mass-produce an affordable electric car, and the first to develop an electric starter and air bags, GM has always pushed the limits of engineering.

  • GM is the only company with a fully integrated solution to produce self-driving vehicles at scale.
  • We are committed to an all-electric future.
  • 2.6 billion EV miles have been driven by drivers of five GM electrified models, including the Chevrolet Bolt EV.

Our future depends on responsible stewardship of the earth, and we continually seek creative and innovative solutions for the environment. Our policies and technologies promote a cleaner planet from supply chain to manufacturing to the vehicles we put on the road.

Across 14 recent new-vehicle launches, we’ve trimmed an average of 357 pounds per vehicle, saving 35 million gallons of gasoline and avoiding 312,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions per year.

Today, our vehicle manufacturing process has the lowest environmental footprint in our history, thanks to steady progress toward achieving our 2020 operational commitments to reduce energy, carbon, water and waste intensity.

We are General Motors. We transformed how the world moved through the last century. And we’re determined to do it again as we redefine mobility to serve our customers and shareholders and solve societal challenges.
