GM's goal is to be all electric by 2035, not 2025. They will just have 30 electric vehicles by 2025.

Can't wait for the zebra corner rework Problem is these are way too short, but we'll see.

EDIT: they didn't even worry about the connotation of going with DR EVIL...

I watched that commercial last night. It is pitiful, sad and dumb. It was a bunch of lame Austin Powers schtick and the GM EVs were stuck in at the end of the commercial - kind of as an afterthought. Obviously I didn't care for it. Nor am I interested in an EV at this point. Looks like my 2016 SS will be with me for a good while.

Its a bunch of woke bs thrown in our faces again. What a horrible propaganda piece.

My favorite part was the appearance that Scott Evil was once a pregnant man....lol

We will probably be told this commercial is genius somehow, but to me it stinks.

GM (gm) has shown their true colors and a terrible sense of humor.

Not at all against EV’s. But, I agree, it’s a bad, super corny commercial that doesn’t move the needle at all (for me). Maybe a step up from their standard commercials where the “real people” are amazed “This is a Chevy?” But, that’s about it.

GM should buy out Dodge’s marketing firm so they can work for them.

Hilarious...this will get the most SB up votes. I think Mike Myers sucked on SNL but was brilliant is the Austin Powers flicks. EV's suck. But the clip os funny. Don't BUY ELECTRIC....its a SCAM.

I thought the skit was funny but not to promote EV’s or an auto company. The 3 EV’s shown, may be in showrooms by end of next year, that’s terrible. To me, our biggest threat is actually 2, our debt and China. I don’t mind if we move to EV’s, it’s the cost of transitioning to them from infrastructure improvements, EV incentives, higher electric costs, heavier vehicles and what appears to be 20% or more increase in pickup trucks (ie..$75k loaded 2022 Silverado, $100k 2023 Silverado EV.

I threw up in my mouth a little bit....

If gm (Not GM) were going to waste money on a commercial, they should have advertised a real car.

Dr EVil doing a burn out in a Camaro saying he was going to take over the world would be way more comical.

No mention of gm (not GM) and how they fared. (Other than the 63-64 Impala)
