    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    BrightDrop, GM’s commercial EV delivery business unit, announced Monday plans to expand sales of its flagship electric vans to Mexico.

    GM didn’t give a precise date of when Mexico-based customers can begin ordering its products, only to say it would happen later this year.

    “Bringing BrightDrop’s products to Mexico is a key move in our mission to decarbonize delivery globally, while helping customers take advantage of the economic benefits of going electric,” BrightDrop’s chief commercial officer Steve Hornyak, said in a statement.

    While it is still a nascent business, BrightDrop has managed to carve out some market share in the commercial EV fleet industry, gaining orders from DHL Express, FedEx and Ryder, among others.

    The company expanded its business to Canada in late 2022 with the first Canadian-bound EV vans delivered in June of this year.

    To date, more than 1,000 Zevo 600 vans have been produced at GM’s CAMI Assembly plant in Ontario, Canada.
