Shares of General Motors (NYSE: GM) slid 4.30% over the past month, compounding a difficult start to the year that has seen the stock lose 12.38%. The legacy automaker continues to struggle as the fallout from President Trump’s announcement that the U.S. would be placing a 25% tariff on all imported vehicles and automotive parts remains to cloud the industry’s outlook. GM’s stock, which sources its parts from a global network of 3,100 primary suppliers and a significant presence in Mexico, Canada and Asia, has suffered according.

GM’s ascent to the pinnacle of U.S. manufacturing clout and excellence in post-WWII era America made Chevrolet and Buick household names, with Cadillac hailed as the Holy Grail of luxury cars. General Motors’ supremacy has since been supplanted by rivals — both foreign and domestic — but the company continues to maintain a global presence in the automotive industry.

Still, the Detroit-headquartered legacy carmaker has seen its stock gain just 1.03% over the past year, but it has produced a healthy 115.22% return over the past five years. 24/7 Wall St. crunched the numbers to give invests our best estimate of GM’s future share price. No one has a crystal ball, and even the Wall Street is wrong just as often as it is right when it comes to predicting future stock prices.

Key Drivers of GM’s Stock Performance

1. Electrification: General Motors is decidedly “all-in” on EVs, unlike rival Ford, which announced some EV production cutbacks. GM’s larger international network will help to boost this segment in upcoming years.

2. Partnerships: GM’s arrangement with Uber to supply Cruise robotaxis should start generating another revenue stream commencing in 2026. 

3. R&D: General Motors’ Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, a project under its R&D department’s AI development, is tentatively projected to kickstart sometime in 2028. Meanwhile, the company’s battery technology R&D is anticipated to create greater efficiencies, storage capabilities and longer running times between charges in the future.
