Chennai-born Suryadevara, currently the vice president of corporate finance, will take over from current CFO Chuck Stevens.
G Barra and Suryadevara are the first women in their respective positions in the auto industry, as no other major global automaker has a female CEO, nor a CEO and CFO who are both female.
