TL;DR Summary
GM backed out of its EV lease credit plan due to political pushback, while Ford is halting F-150 Lightning production because of aluminum supply issues caused by a fire at Novelis. Additionally, GM has reversed its plan to extend EV lease discounts, and nearly $1.1 billion in federal grants to GM and Stellantis may be rescinded due to funding cancellations.
