It's pretty hard to argue some extremely significant cars haven't been produced under Barra's leadership including the C8, Blacking, 6th Generation Camaro, and mass-production EV's. Look at their truck lineup. We didn't get that under Ackerson or Wagoner. |
The Blackwing debacle is not a great example of success. How they managed to drop the ball on something with so much hype is shocking.
The 6th gen Camaro flopped. A parts bin special with the bare minimum of development, ignoring all of the issues the 5th gen had.
The new Colorado is another cost cutting special. One body style, one powertrain, cheap lighting, limited options, and a damn prop rod instead of hood struts.
The Silverado and Sierra are a little better but that’s because they make so much money. Still, where’s the Raptor or TRX competitor?
The C8 is the only GM vehicle that is actually doing anything interesting.
So sure, she’s making profit at the expense of interesting and inspired vehicles. Can she maintain the success selling blandness? She’s fortunate most people just want 4 wheels to get from A to B.
