General Motors and Ford Motor Co. are getting big orders for their electric vehicles from a California-based startup that offers drivers the option to buy a subscription to an EV instead of buying the EV itself.
The company, Autonomy, said Tuesday it placed an order for 23,000 EVs with 17 global automakers to expand its subscription fleet beyond Tesla, which is the only EV it offers. This new fleet order is valued at $1.2 billion.
While Tesla still got the lion's share of the new order — 8,300 vehicles valued at $443 million — GM and Ford came in near the top.
