General Motors' Chinese division has announced the appointment of Ray Bierzynski as the unit's first-ever executive director for electrification strategy. Bierzynski, who has held numerous positions within GM over the past 30 years, will be tasked with accelerating vehicle electrification in the automaker's most immense global market and coordinating the commercialization of GM's electrification technologies in China.

Shortly after his appointment, Bierzynski had this to say:
As an emerging market, China is in a great position to leverage GM's global leadership in vehicle electrification. By joining hands with domestic enterprises, government institutions and academic institutions, we look forward to creating solutions in China that will meet the unique needs of the local market and local consumers.
Bierzynski joined GM back in 1978, landing a spot with Cadillac. Since then, he has held several positions in engineering, design, component development and advance purchasing. Some of Bierzynki's most notable titles include president of the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center in Shanghai and vice-president of engineering for GM Asia Pacific. We'll be keeping an eye on this one.
