GM’s commercial electric vehicle company BrightDrop recently announced the opening of its first dealership.

BrightDrop Greater Los Angeles in Fontana, Calif. supports fleet customers with ordering, upfitting and maintaining purpose-built electric delivery vehicles.

“BrightDrop aims to be a one-stop shop for our customers,” said Travis Katz, BrightDrop president and CEO. “End to end, we are providing solutions for nearly every aspect of the delivery journey and establishing our first dealership is a major piece of that puzzle. BrightDrop dealers will support fleet operators in their electrification journey, providing electric vehicle expertise and service.”

BrightDrop’s all-electric ecosystem of products, software and services is designed to help optimize productivity, drive down costs, and slash emissions and road congestion.

BrightDrop Greater Los Angeles is operated by Mike Caposio, a leading dealer operator. Caposio also operates Caposio Buick GMC and Rotolo Chevrolet, the largest Chevrolet dealership in California and recipient of Chevy’s 2020 Dealer of the Year award.

“We are honored to be selected as BrightDrop’s first-ever dealership,” Caposio said. “They have a world-class electric delivery van portfolio and share my focus on serving the fleet customer. I believe the era of all-electric fleets is here and I am committed to helping modernize America’s delivery fleets.”
