I think the Grand Sport would be a better track car compared to the base. Maybe a bit pricier, but I think that would be my pick on the C7.

Destroying GM vehicles as a Jalopnik writer.

If BMW continues like this and Cadillac manages to not fuck up the Lyriq launch (unlikely, because GM) then the Lyriq actually has some pretty good chances. Super Cruise is best in the industry, and supposedly the Lyriq will get all-bespoke switchgear (I’ll believe it when I touch it). I even think it’s fairly…

Its pretty amazing how well GM seems to be doing EVs. They took their sweet time working it all out but it is paying off. These look so much better and better designed and put together over whatever Tesla has. Mary Barra deserves a lot of credit.

The high horsepower output is a byproduct of the fast charging.  The faster that you can move power in equals the ability to discharge power.  In essence, the power is free so you might as well offer it.

It’s about time that America makes an ultra luxury car again.

I’m like genuinely really proud of GM for actually doing this. 

It’s a hand built, low production, halo car. They likely have their buyers already lined up.

Looks fantastic and like nothing else. People will say it’s too expensive, but I think It’s smart. No other $300k+ luxury sedan offers this level of modern design; they all cater to old school luxury. I bet there’s plenty of new-money crypto bros who would rather have this over a Rolls. Though we all know the ultimate…

1st Gear: I would argue that Tesla is only “luxury” in price. The inside of the 3 and Y are much less luxurious than my 9 year old Lexus CT (the cheapest Lexus) and about on par with my 15 year old Highlander Hybrid. The Model 3 and a Camry/Altima/Accord are probably better comparisons, even though I would easily give…

Counterpoint:

So close.

Looks like their strategy is to use existing nameplates with “EV” attached. For the transition period to EV, it’s a good strategy. Customers already associate whatever the existing nameplate is with market position, utility, and styling, so there’s a consumer adoption shortcut. Unlike bz4x SPNY or whatever the hell…

Been waiting to see if this would really pan out. If I’m not mistaken, this comes out around the same time that the EV incentives start to go to where you can transfer the rebate to the dealer as part of the sale too, so sign me up for the fully loaded one thankyouverymuch!

I like it.

Never thought I’d say this, but GM’s styling game on crossovers has been very strong lately. The newest Blazer is pretty sharp, and this follows in its footsteps as being a fairly handsome little SUV. Good job GM.

It looks reasonably well-styled and boasts a competitive powertrain, price and feature set. I think we’re about to see perhaps the most competent lineup of GM cars in a long time.

I wonder what the upgraded versions’ MSRP will be. I was currently looking at an Ioniq 5 SEL (MSRP ~46k) but if these come in at ~10k less for a similar ~300 mile range I would definitely be considering one...if I can wait another year that is.

It’s a small production run between 100 and 200 Mini EVs for now, but given how popular the Mini EV is, the cabrio model could end up being a mainstay of Wuling’s EV lineup.
