    Please. It doesn’t “go up” against anyone. GM hasn’t built anything yet. They haven’t even begun mass deliveries of their HummerEV yet. They delivered ONE Hummer this past quarter – one.

    Id be a bit excited about this, and all car companies moving to electric, but I’m not sure GM will survive. This is mostly advertising and despite the fact they have Biden in paid advertisements… lol, its not going to work . I think Tech companies will take over, not just tesla, but apple, maybe even sony, who knows. GM and other unionized companies have big issues with structures an interest groups that would rather make a faulty product that requires tons of serving, and a method of construction that keeps more jobs, than something that is really groundbreaking and good for the end user and society. Their business model just doesn’t work and now that others have created better models, its really hard to make the shift.
