I mean - its "neat" to me, but in perspective to what the other companies are doing with the technology is far beyond what GM is trying to do.
The C8 is going to have an AWD capability with the front drive being electric - and they are having McClaren develop it. That is the company who is really innovating the technology for the rest of the industry.

I thought the fastest p100d was in the mid 10 range? And that was after being completely gutted?
And the future looks completely dismal in my opinion. I just feel like why bother when a Tesla can beat anything we do? Anyone can just go out and buy one and laugh. Now I will say I think Tesla claims are way often overrxaggerated especially since they have the support of "do-gooders" to back them up. This is compounded by the fact tuning is ending, it would be one thing if you could tune a Tesla but they have over the air updates they'll be no hacking them.
