General Motors Becomes Canada's Top EV Seller for the First Half of 2025.
December 16 2025,
General Motors has completely rewritten the Canadian EV playbook. Moving from a modest 8.1% market share to a dominant 23.2% in the first half of 2025, GM has officially seized the lead, vaulting from sixth place to the best-selling EV manufacturer in the country. This monumental achievement, solidifying three consecutive quarters at the top, tells a simple story: GM’s broad and diverse electric vehicle lineup is exactly what Canadian consumers are buying.
A Growing EV Lineup Canadians Are Responding To
One major reason GM leads Canadian EV sales in the first half of 2025 is simple: choice. GM now offers 13 electric vehicles across Chevrolet, GMC, and Cadillac, giving Canadian drivers options that span compact SUVs, luxury models, full-size pickups, and commercial vehicles. From the Chevrolet Equinox EV priced under $49,000* to high-end offerings like the Cadillac LYRIQ and Escalade IQ, GM’s EV portfolio covers more ground than any competitor in Canada.
Cadillac Dominates the Luxury EV Conversation
Cadillac played a huge role in GM’s EV success. In the luxury EV segment, Cadillac secured a 30.5% market share, with the Cadillac OPTIQ becoming the most-registered luxury EV in Canada during the first half of the year. That kind of performance shows how quickly Cadillac’s electric shift is resonating with buyers who want premium design paired with electric efficiency.
New Customers Fuel the Momentum
Perhaps the most impressive statistic is that over 60% of GM EV buyers were first-time customers to the brand. That means GM is not just retaining loyal drivers, but actively winning over Canadians who are new to electric vehicles or switching from competitors.
