Re: CarPlay

The Caddy also has CarPlay.

Since they share a platform, are in the same size class, and GM is still scaling EV manufacturing, my guess is that the cost per unit to produce a Blazer is similar to the Lyriq. That may help to explain some of the cheap interior material choices, which is likely the only place GM could cut costs further on the…

The 4xe is a plug in hybrid where both ICE and electric connect to driveline. This is range extended battery electric vehicle. Essentially, the V6 is not directly attached to the drive system. The V6 is only designed to recharge the batteries as needed.  This is an electric vehicle prepackaged with a generator like…

Compared to it’s 12mpg predecessor, in terms of CO2 output the Hummer EV is a gigantic leap forward.

And those of us who have the recalled models haven’t had a problem with the original battery, and getting a new battery and fresh warranty is certainly a wonderful plus.  In my case, at 49k on my ‘17 Premiere, and we still have the wife’s ‘20 Premiere to go.

Bolt EV and Bolt EUV are sold out of months. Effectively sold out to end of production. 

GM execs did not kill pontiac. Obama did.  GM wanted to keep Pontiac but they were forced to only keep 3 brands. At the 11th hour they were allowed to keep GMC but that was about to get the Axe too. The largest demand from Obama during the bailout was to limit their brands to only 3 and they HAD to take the money so…

Please. People act like GM dropped a fantastic, high-value brand in Pontiac but the reality is that it was a “sporty” trim level of Chevy by the time they killed it. It will always be the smarter decision to kill it in favor of Buick.

well the REV will weigh 5000lbs more, so this might not be an issue

They’re just RPO codes, man.  Takes all of 2 seconds to figure it out.

Probably just me, but I think the Envision is one of the nicest looking crossovers on the road today.

There are no less than three Buick Encore in the parking lot at my employer. All are driven by women, all are under 35, two of them are under 30. 

What do you mean “that kind of money”??? This is cheap for a new car today, and has a cheaper starting price than a Ford Escape! I would argue this is a bargain if it is even remotely “luxurious” considering it is Escape money. A BMW x1 starts at $39k so I think you are a little out of touch with what realistic car…

Kevin - to you and the other Jalopnik writer, we kindly ask for more articles like this. So often when journalists are flown out for an event, 90% of the reviews of any car it is is positive with a slight negative sentence at the end. This felt real, unadulterated, truth, and resonated with a lot of us readers, check…

What is happening in this picture?  Why is the bottom different from the top?

Vingroup has businesses all over Vietnam. You might buy groceries at VinMart and clothing at VinPlaza.

Great write up. Kudos on not being afraid to speak truth to power.

The TLX Type S starts at $53,000. If this starts with a 5 they missed the mark. 

No, the Envision is their compact CUV
