GM Canada president Kristian Aquilina made a stop in Metro Vancouver last week to boost his company’s sales pitch to become a bigger force in B.C.“We have fairly lofty and ambitious goals to drive that EV adoption nationally,” he said.

GM has five new models available this year , including the Equinox , which was its highest-selling EV in Canada over the last three months despite only being fully available in July .

GM ’s listed base price for the Equinox is $ 48,199 , which makes it eligible for federal and provincial rebates worth up to $9,000 combined.

Tailpipe emissions from transportation remains the biggest source of carbon emissions we need to reduce, Melanson said.
