Texas is truck country. Come to the N.E. and they're are plenty of folks who still want a sedan. Pickup trucks, too.
Some will say GM did the research and decided that it should go. Likely. But the EV push is at the core and platform/battery share is steering the General in that direction. Time will tell how sales pan out but EVs right now are exceeding 100 day supply.

Pretty much spot on except for the last line. Very few EVs are at or near 100 day supply and for some of them it makes sense. Example…Jaguar iPace typically has about 300 plus days of inventory at any point in time. Their average sales per day is 1-3 cars nationwide. And Jaguar has 337 dealerships. So on any given day, every dealership has one iPace that they may or may not sell that month.

Here’s my list of EVs with more than 100 days supply…

• Cadillac Lyriq: 200 (14,043 vehicles)
• Genesis GV60: 105 (1,071 vehicles)
• Mercedes-Benz EQE: 129 (1,998 vehicles)
• Mercedes-Benz EQS: 99 (1,254 vehicles)
• Audi eTron GT: 124 (613 vehicles)
• Mercedes-Benz EQB: 238 (2,200 vehicles)
• Jaguar iPace: 93 (306 vehicles)

Out of that list, the only one that would worry me if I’m a vehicle planner is Lyriq. Mercedes-Benz has a lot of inventory. But even their ICE vehicles that are not built at Tuscaloosa tend to have very high (between 100 - 200 days) inventory.
