While I wait for that, I’ll post a couple statements from GM President Mark Reuss and others on the topic. Reuss would certainly be a bit more knowledgeable on the topic than most since it’s his job. Reuss is also a car guy. He pretty much single handily green lit the 5th Gen Z/28 and the ZL1 1LE and he is one of the best track drivers at GM, despite his faux pas with the ZR1 at the Detroit Grand Prix. And just as much as it’s Mark Reuss’s job to pilot GM product strategy, it’s my job to cover and consult on this stuff.

You forgot this one. And what a coincidence! Right after the Nov 3rd election!

GM had to go woke to appease the mob and the Biden administration. Prior to the election result they at least had some integrity. All that free money was just too good to risk by not being a good lackey and going all in with EVs sooner than later.
