General Motors is scaling back its previous electric vehicle buildout target, the latest sign that more automakers are concerned with the slowed growth of EVs.

The letter also reported a healthy third-quarter profit of $3.1 billion in net income, even as the strike from the United Auto Workers union hit profits.
