通用汽車（紐交所：GM）週一在一份聲明中表示，將把在位於密歇根州蘭辛的Ultium Cells LLC電池電芯工廠的股份賣出給其合資夥伴LG能源解決方案。
What Happened: Ultium Cells is a joint venture between LG Energy and GM. The stake sale in the plant in Lansing will not change GM's ownership in Ultium Cells, the company said. The sale will fetch GM nearly $1 billion, according to a Reuters report, citing sources familiar with the matter.
發生了什麼：Ultium Cells是LG能源與通用汽車的一個合資公司。該公司表示，蘭辛工廠的股權出售不會改變通用汽車在Ultium Cells中的所有權。根據路透社的報道，出售將爲通用汽車帶來近10億的收入。
The battery cell plant in Lansing is nearly completed and LG Energy will have immediate access to it to begin equipment installation. The stake sale transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2025, the company said, without divulging the deal value.
蘭辛的電池電芯工廠幾乎完工，LG能源將立即進入該工廠進行設備安裝。該公司的股權出售交易預計將在2025年第一季度完成，未透露交易價值。

爲什麼這很重要：這家汽車製造商現在將利用Ultium Cells在俄亥俄州禾倫和田納西州春山的其他工廠爲其電動車製造電池電芯。
The company sold 32,095 EVs in the three months through the end of September in the U.S., with the Chevrolet Equinox EV accounting for a majority of the deliveries.
該公司在截至9月底的三個月中在美國出售了32,095輛電動車，其中雪佛蘭Equinox EV佔大多數交付。
GM delivered about 8 EV models in the U.S. in the third quarter, a lineup longer than competitors such as Tesla and Ford.
通用汽車在美國第三季度交付了約8款電動車，比特斯拉和福特等競爭對手的車型更爲豐富。

然而，今年早些時候，通用汽車CEO瑪麗·巴拉表示，該公司將推遲到2025年底在北美生產100萬輛電動車的目標，理由是市場狀況。
