The "Design Center" referenced is a large addition to the 1950s original on the campus of the General Motors Technical Center in Warren Michigan. That space was previously a parking lot for employees. Originally the space was used as a backdrop for publicity photography for new cars... with light poles and manicured trees in an almost courtyard setting. The 1950s through 1970s era was GM's pinnacle of design leadership. Numerous classic vehicles were produced during that era such as the Tri-Five Chevrolets, 1961 Impala, 1963 Riviera, 1963 Corvette, 1965 Coupe deVille, 1967 Camaro and Eldorado, 1971 Grand Prix, 1976 Seville, 1979 Riviera, etc. Then GM design went downhill in the 1980s and 1990s with the 1985 Deville, 1986 Eldorado, 1990 Lumina, 1992 Caprice Classic, "Dustbuster" minivans, Pontiac Aztek, etc. ...vehicles openly mocked for bad design. Mary Barra has turned around GM and made it profitable on a per unit basis... and she wisely dumped the money losing Opel, Vauxhall, and Holden brands. But the result now is a much smaller share of the American market...from once over 40 percent to approximately 16 percent.

I had avoided it due to the somewhat overt styling elements inside and out (which I'm getting used to). But the content for the money and materials quality as well as the control layout really impressed, as did the strong AC front and back, and the solid, refined feel of the car on the road. I drove the base 288 hp, 279 mi range model. This is the first American-branded car I've considered in years (not counting the occasional thoughts of an F-150 that I really don't need). Great car.

This is the first Mary Barra interview I've seen where she comes across as being genuine, not just mouthing talking points.

@nickwulf 2 ай бұрын

"GM is up like 12% in the last ten years” - Lots of reasons for that, from overseas markets being unprofitable, to losing money on sedans and compacts for 25 years in a diminishing market, to poor reliability in comparison to Japanese vehicles long ago. Can’t pay UAW workers what should be because $120 billion of debt from the last 40 years. “We’ll go bankrupt…” , yeah because of poor design decisions and quality perception from 1996. I’ll give Mary a break on all of this - she wasn’t making the decisions that led to all of this, and I respect her for recognizing what GM needs to do to turn it around. The buybacks are some evil greed type stuff tho, Mary. So, anyway I look forward to see the new revolutionary vehicle designs and bold moves that’ll make Sandy Munro smile. Move on from the mistakes of the past, like 96 Chevy Blazer, and Lumina or 2002 Monte Carlo or Impala, or the Avalanche - I guess GM isn’t making any sedans anymore but what I’m saying is choose better visually appealing designs, (the new Colorado looks nice) better handling and suspension (teslas doing it) we all want to see GM thrive, you can do it Mary.

@@Nick-gj6je 1. yes, they are 2. didn't hear it anywhere 3. with the one exception being guarding against acquisition, share buybacks are using company profits to prop up share price short term and add nothing of value. Spend that money on R&D, capitalcapital expenditures, pay off debt

Yes, we're still waiting for the acceleration now that GM has discontinued the Bolt, its most successful (because cheapest) EV. Maybe the Equinox will be a huge hit. Maybe Cadillac and its sclerotic dealers will actually sell customers on the benefits of battery electric when most of the cars in the showroom are EVs.

Tesla is competitive, but they are starting to become dated. GM is quite competitive when it comes to safety, and Tesla is simply no longer innovating or really doing much. Meanwhile, their cars are harder than the industry average to fix.

The video explained that was the production line for the hand-assembled $340,000 Cadillac Celestiq. GM has plenty of robots in other factories. It would be nice to see the factory where GM needs to produce 100,000s of the Chevy Equinox if it's really going to sell a million EVs.

Problem with EVs is that in several countries the infrastructure is simply not there yet. Plus, the early adopters have bought them so now you are trying to sell EVs to the other 80%+ of the market. The challenge to GM is not TESLA or the other traditional auto makers but rather Chinese EVs. China has the capability to do the same thing to the US auto industry that Japan did in the 70/80/90s unless some form of protection is there. Personally, I am not in favour of protectionist policies so expect a bumpy ride. Just to be clear, the same challenges face Ford, Chrysler, VW etc.
