Covering the bases perhaps??...Just in case the EV switcharoo proves to be a complete sales bust?

The veteran GM engineer's Global Innovation team is looking for new enterprises to expand the automaker's sources of revenue well beyond vehicle sales and is incubating ventures from commercial delivery services to vehicle insurance, to address future markets worth an estimated $1.3 trillion

new Ferrari SF90 twin turbo V8 and 3 electric motors

The fastest Ferrari road car ever made is also among the most usable. Performance is staggering. While it's hard not to be impressed by a 2.5-second zero-to-62-mph claim that's likely on the conservative side, that only tells a small part of the story. Ferrari says the SF90 can haul itself from rest to 124 mph in just 6.7 seconds.

My apologies!

I don't think Joe Biden is the man he once was at this point, and that's not coming back.

Anthony,

I know. For now I would not park it near your house or another structure.

We’re not! And we don’t charge it (leave it plugged in) overnight either. Per GM’s recommendations… makes it difficult to get the charge up… gah.

"Buckle to drive" is there on several models to further nag the driver this year, and next year the feature will be further expanded... but HEY this all looks like 1974 all over again.

As of now it is just the teens...

GM will be telling Bolt owners who are concerned about parking in public places that it recommends keeping 50 feet from a parked Bolt to other cars in garages and lots, according to spokesman Dan Flores.
