Probably includes the loss of benefit in kind (kickbacks in the US) that GM
receives from the oil companies. ;-D

I was under the impression that most entirely new cars (regardless of their
motive source) were money-losers in their first years. That's supposedly
why automakers prefer to build "new" models by adapting established bases,
no? It keeps the tooling costs lower.
But GM don't whine about new ICEVs losing money, only new EVs. Gosh, I
wonder why that is.
