GM Pledge to Go Electric by 2035 Aligns with Global Trend, Analysts Say

Mike O'Sullivan

   LOS ANGELES - General Motors' recent pledge to produce almost nothing
   but electric vehicles by 2035 is part of a global auto trend --a shift
   given fresh impetus by a supportive U.S. administration under President
   Joe Biden, say analysts reacting to the most ambitious clean-energy
   goal announced by any major auto maker.

   GM says it hopes to shift to producing only electric cars, small trucks
   and sports utility vehicles over that 14-year period and become a
   carbon neutral company five years later.
