Details

The company expects to record charges of approximately $6.0 billion in Q4 2025, primarily related to non-cash impairments and other charges, as well as cash impacts from supplier settlements and contract cancellation fees. These adjustments do not affect the current retail portfolio of EVs in production. Additionally, GM expects to record approximately $1.1 billion in non-EV related charges for Q4 2025, mainly due to restructuring in its China joint venture and an additional legal accrual.
