“Electric vehicle?”

Yeah, that was my first thought. I doubt the market is there yet. Not sure it will ever be.

Last I knew, SUVs were still what folks are buying.

" I doubt the market is there yet."

Other than for a few foolish liberal urbanites, the EV market is totally driven by US government CO2 emission standards. Trump has given a slight reprieve (if you can call 35 mpg corporate average for pickup trucks a reprieve), but the next Democrat or RINO Republican president could easily reverse that. It would be foolish for GM to not have an EV (coal powered, but declared by the US government to be "Zero Emission") on the books for quick averaging into the CO2 emission requirements.
