Reading the last of the original post, copied below, it would seem Mary
has made a lot of positive progress in just a few years. If not thwarted
by political pressure she may be able to continue in her environmentally
correct direction. I love the Tesla but don't think the EV movement
should be a competition between them and other vehicles. Collaboration
to make the ICE an obsolete technology would be better.
According to Reuters, the Chevrolet Bolt was the first mass-produced
electric vehicle to go more than 200 miles (320km) between charges, and
sell under U.S $40,000.
GM sold 23,297 Bolts in 2017 while Tesla produced 1,770 of its U.S
$35,000 Model 3, well short of the company’s original targets.

The GM CEO is now a woman so management should be different and greatly

I guess that's a good development. Makes one go hmmm when you think about past
claims about the GM EV1 (and also EVs in general) being impossible to make
profitably. Sunk costs and ongoing R&D costs can be manageable when you look at
them with the right scale.

General Motors (GM) has announced it will be launching at least 20
all-new
electric vehicles (EV) by 2023 and it is working with Chinese partner
SAIC
to develop new and more cost efficient EV production facilities in
China to
produce them.
According to Reuters, GM chief executive officer Mary Barra has made a
promise to investors that the company will make a profit on selling EV
by
2021.
