The next two years will see a big expansion in the range of hybrids and full electric vehicles being offered, rolled out by all the traditional automakers - these days, no one wants to be late to the electric party. Now, whether the market is sufficiently primed to provide demand for so many new electric and hybrid vehicles, all at once, is an open question that some are asking. I think not. Mind you, I am not skeptical about either hybrids or electric vehicles, but I think for the bulk of buyers, this is a transition to happen over the next 15-20 years, not over the next 5 years.

Now don’t forget GM was the first automaker to have a all electric car. So this is not its first rodeo with electric vehicles.
The General Motors EV1 was an electric car produced and leased by General Motors from 1996 to 1999.[2] It was the first mass-produced and purpose-designed electric vehicle of the modern era from a major automaker, the first GM car designed to be an electric vehicle from the outset along with being the first and only passenger car to be marketed under the corporate General Motors (GM) name instead of being branded under one of its divisions.[3]
