GM confirms Spark EV battery replacements, plans to make packs for years:
and being told the battery is unavailable, and a dealer tech commenting on the page to say none of the higher ups had told him anything.
We asked the spokesperson how they thought the story got from"GM is temporarily out of Spark EV batteries" to"GM won't make Spark EV batteries again." The reply began,"Batteries used in the 2014 MY Spark EV were supplied by another company, not LG." "We switched to LG in 2015 and for the rest of the Spark EV’s run," the spokesperson continued."We did have some replacement packs for 2014 with the cells from the old supplier, but when those ran out we closed off that part [number] for re-order. [We] think [someone] saw that and jumped to the conclusion that we weren’t providing replacement packs anymore, not realizing the packs from the other model years are compatible for use in 2014 MY Spark EVs.
