VW, still high on diesel fumes, thinks snowball EV can beat Model 3

The GM CEO:

“Our internal focus is to make GM the first maker of profitable, highly desirable, range-leading, and obtainable electric transportation,” Barra told analysts, investors and media in a first-quarter earnings call last month.

So 1 of 4 so far, soon to be 0 of 4.

Ebola is also obtainable. Doesn't mean anyone wants it. I sat in a Bolt once. Now I hate all EVs.

McRat's Axiom: "Every discussion about vehicle electrification will always decay into a debate about whether or not General Motors should make electric vehicles".

VW and GM's positions on vehicle electrification is further apart than Berlin is to Detroit in driving distance.

The ICE'g (har) on the cake is that GM has no diesel emissions issues.

The board could save a lot of bandwidth and backup time by simply using a special 1 byte char that says "GM sucks, always will suck, are criminals, can't design anything, and will never make an EV that works" and put that byte at the end of every record.
