In the world of public sector fleets, the vehicles fleet managers have in their lineup can vary widely. From sedans, to pickup trucks, police cars, and more – government fleets are diverse.

Wondering what vehicles will be available for the 2024 model year? What’s going away? What’s coming? What changes are being made to some of the most widely used models by public sector fleets?

Government Fleet has you covered with a rundown of some of the top vehicles from Ford, General Motors, and Stellantis for 2024.

Despite the news that GM's CAMI Assembly Plant — which produces the Zevo 600 — will be idling until Spring 2024, according to The Detroit News, a GM spokesperson told GF that BrightDrop "has the inventory to continue satisfying customer demand into 2024 and sustain momentum with both existing and new customers."

Perhaps among the most anticipated new vehicle news for the automaker is the next-generation Chevy Bolt. When it was announced that the first-generation EV and EUV models would be discontinued, fleet and retail customers alike voiced their love of the vehicle.

Several months later, GM announced the vehicle would make a comeback. However, you’ll have to wait a little longer if you want to order one of those. The Bolt will be available beginning with the 2025 model year.
