Some numbers to provide context about where GM is in the EV game:
in 2021, GM delivered 24,828 EVs (Chevy Bolt) out of 2,218,228 cars in total in the USA, or just over 1% of their USA deliveries.[1]<p>They still have a ways to go.<p>[1] <a href="https://www.best-selling-cars.com/usa/2021-full-year-usa-gm-sales-chevrolet-buick-cadillac-gmc/" rel="nofollow">https://www.best-selling-cars.com/usa/2021-full-year-usa-gm-...</a>
Late 2023? And GM being GM, it'll be mid-2024, and they won't make enough of them. Don't get me wrong, I'd like to buy one. But I'll bet a paycheck that I don't. Because some of us are still on our original first-ten Leafs, and boy howdy, is <i>that</i> car getting long in the tooth after 11 years. And I seriously doubt that we wait long enough for GM to produce one of these for our garage.<p>No biggie, that Hyundai Ioniq is looking good. Mustang is a strong possibility. Maybe VW isn't lying about that Buzz minivan. Point is, plenty of options that will go 300 miles and carry two dogs. GM best get their asses in gear.
God bless GM for still using tactile buttons and knobs in the (very sharp-looking) interior. The proliferation of touch controls for something as simple as turning on the hazard lights or lowering the sunroof is a travesty.
