After the Chevy Volt was cancelled and the original Bolt failed to achieve widespread success, many worried that General Motors' commitment to electric vehicles would waver. But following a slew of announcements today, that concern appears to be unfounded. GM appears to be going all in.

It started with the GMC Hummer pickup, which GM showed off at a closed-doors EV backgrounder event, according to the Detroit Free Press. Now, though, we know that there will also be a Hummer SUV and that all of GM's upcoming EV trucks will use 800-volt architecture.

But it's not all about GMC and the Hummer. GM laid out its plans to turn Cadillac into a formidable brand in the EV space. That campaign will start in earnest next month, when Cadillac will unveil its first electric model: the Lyriq crossover. According to Motor1, which had at least one writer at the event, the Lyriq looks "very similar to the unnamed electric crossover that the brand teased in January," pictured above.

GM's new modular platform, which will underpin the Lyriq and many more vehicles, will be able to support battery packs ranging from 50 kWh to 200 kWh, enabling ranges of up to 400 miles for some models on the architecture. GM is working on driving down battery costs with its partner LG Chem, branding its vertically stackable pouch cells as Ultium batteries.

Cadillac will also launch an all-electric flagship sedan, the Celestiq. It'll be a limited-production, hand-built, massive EV with similar syling to the Lyriq crossover. It'll have a screen that spans the entire dashboard, with a 2+2 seating arrangement. When Car and Driver asked why the brand need's a big, opulent sedan, GM president Mark Reuss was blunt.

"Do you think the Cadillac brand is in good shape? It's not," Reuss said.

Of course, they need a flagship SUV too. It's 2020, after all. According to Car and Driver, Cadillac will launch an Escalade-sized electric SUV by 2025. It should ride on the same platform as the Hummer. One final piece of good news for Cadillac fans: as these models preview, all electric Cadillacs will use distinct names, ditching the alphanumeric nonsense.

Chevy, too, is expanding its electric aspirations. The Bolt will get a facelift this year, but—more importantly—will be joined by a Bolt EUV all-electric crossover in 2021. Details are scarce, but one bright spot is that it'll get GM's stellar semi-autonomous Super Cruise system. It'll be the first Chevy to get Super Cruise, which until now has been exclusive to Cadillac. Chevy is also planning to launch its own electric pickup by 2025, likely sharing DNA with the Hummer.
