This is a perfect illustration of why GM is going under. The Chevy Volt, which I think is ugly and bulky and looks like a car only a man would drive, is scheduled to come out in 2011 and sell for more than $40,000. Meanwhile, Honda is gradually moving to an all-hybrid fleet, with its second generation of the Insight coming out in 2009 and retailing for LESS than the Civic Hybrid...in other words, it'll be one of Honda's cheapest cars (less than $20,000), and if it's like the previous Insight, it'll get more than 60 mpg. And it looks awesome!
GM lacks vision and is out of touch with what Americans want to buy. That is their problem, not the unions. The cheapest workers in the world won't help them if no one wants to buy their cars. And they just don't get it! They need a complete redesign of their line.
If you're the captain of the Titanic and you see the iceberg ahead, do you keep sailing straight for it, or do you try to do something different?!
