Last May, General Motors made a significant move in the commercial and fleet industry with the relaunch of its commercial and fleet consultant and sales organization, now known as GM Envolve. This revamped business unit reportedly accounts for nearly a quarter of the automaker's annual volume. The new GM Envolve is more than just a name change; it represents a comprehensive approach to serving business customers, offering a range of products and services tailored to their needs.

A Comprehensive Approach

According to Sandor Piszar, Vice President of GM Envolve, the focus of GM Envolve is to be a single point of contact that truly understands the needs of business customers. By leveraging GM's full portfolio of products and services, Envolve aims to help customers grow their businesses. This approach includes everything from vehicle sales to data analytics, OnStar, and SuperCruise services.

OnStar and SuperCruise for Fleet Solutions

Data analytics and safety are key components of modern fleet management. OnStar Business Solutions provides data analytics that help businesses manage their fleets more efficiently, ensuring driver safety and optimizing routes. SuperCruise, GM's driver assistance system, is also gaining interest from fleet customers, especially those with long highway routes. The system enhances safety and reduces driver fatigue, which is crucial for businesses concerned about liability and driver well-being.

The Future of Electric Vehicles in Fleet Services

With the rise of electric vehicles (EVs), GM Envolve is also focusing on integrating EVs into fleet services. Piszar notes that there is significant interest from the livery industry in EVs, particularly in vehicles like the Cadillac Escalade. GM aims to provide EV solutions that offer the same functionality and reliability as their ICE counterparts, ensuring a smooth transition for businesses looking to adopt EVs.

The Chevy Blazer EV PPV: A Game-Changer for Police Fleets

One of GM's recent introductions is the Chevrolet Blazer EV PPV, a pursuit-rated police vehicle that has garnered significant interest. Despite being a new entry in the EV market, the Blazer EV PPV offers compelling features for police fleets, including a silent operation that enhances stealth and a powerful performance that meets the demands of police work. GM Envolve is working closely with police departments to ensure a seamless transition to EVs, providing solutions for charging infrastructure and fleet management.

A Bright Future for GM Fleet Solutions

Looking ahead, GM Envolve is committed to providing both ICE and EV solutions for business customers. With a focus on customer needs and a comprehensive range of products and services, GM Envolve aims to be a trusted partner for businesses looking to enhance their fleet operations. As the automotive industry continues to evolve, GM Envolve is poised to lead the way in fleet solutions.
