A look at the new GM logo

The new logo features the company’s initials (GM) in lowercase letters. Three different alternatives for the new logo have been revealed, one being completely black, light blue fading to a darker blue, and the third being very similar to the the older traditional blue logo.

When asked about the change, GM’s spokesperson said that the second logo symbolizes the clean sky of a zero-emission future and represents the Ultium platform’s energy. Those who aren’t familiar with Ultium are GM’s proprietary lineup of batteries for electric vehicle vehicles.
