If it makes money - and clearly Porsche et al are making money - it would help fund even better traditional vettes in the future.

And yet most of the world including ford fails to provide heated and cooled cupholders like FCA does...

GM should continue to build the corvette AND if the market research supports it as a profitable option, a sister car that is mid engined. While they are at it they should look into building a Corvette SUV to compete against Porsche and other similar offerings.

They will sooner and also be wealthier by doing it using modern ice vehicles.

And in time those countries will have air as clean as Americas cities do today - the cleanest they have been since before the civil war.

Excessive taxes on fuel are a cash grab by government done under the cover of saying it helps the environment. They hurt economic growth and increase the cost of living especially for those who are poorest as it increases the cost of necessities.

Good to see you acknowledge your error.

EVs are still not cost competitor and won’t be anytime soon if ever.

oil is a fungible commodity. The only reason gasoline is expensive at the retail level in those countries is high taxation - not the actual cost of the fuel.

If Evs cost less to own and operate than ice cars there would be no need for subsides. That is not the case obviously.

Coal is made expensive by excessive EPA regs. And western coal is far cheaper to access than eastern coal. In places like az and wy it is literally a few pennies/kWh

We have literally centuries of inexpensive oil reserves and several centuries of NG reserves (and millennia of coal reserves if gasification becomes even more affordable). For our practical purposes and intends they are limitless. EVs done make economic sense in this century.

If it is then there is no need for government involvement.

EVs are unnecessary and thus no potus or any government should be playing favourites with it.

Lng powered semis would eat any ev for lunch on long haul work.

That’s silly. There was a choice made. The possible outcomes of making the opposite choice have to be considered when evaluating the actual choice.

1st gear - GM’s fortunes correlate strongly with the price of gasoline. That wall street is skeptical that GM actually is well-run is well founded based upon decades of evidence.

And they should have let it fail. The bits of GM that would have been aquired by others (google, Apple et al) quite possibly could be doing far better thn GM is now and the taxpayers snd bondholders wouldn’t have been screwed over.

Autonomous cars will be able travel much closer together at speed and thus reduce traffic and the need for new roads and mass transit. Those savings can be put into repair and maintenance.

You obviously don't deal with bureaucracy much - real additions to mass transit isn't buses its physical infrastructure like new rail lines. And they take years - some times decades.
