GM's Mary Barra Pressed To Acknowledge Tesla, Avoids And Refuses

[Tim-in-CA]

I have hated GM's marketing since this ad came out:



As I actually wanted one until I saw the price and this ad, .

I actually went to the focus group for the ELR about 3 years before it came out. When we were told the price everyone said that it was way too much and should be closer to $40,000. I guess we were right seeing as the ELR was pretty much a bomb.

Elon was making electric cars when no one was asking for them and gas was cheap. Tesla almost went bankrupt multiple times while GM kept building 6.2L gas guzzlers. Now that they are successful, all the Boomer auto companies are playing catch-up. GM would not be "all-in" (Biden quote, not actual reality) on EV's if it were not for Tesla building the desire and market for the cars over the entire GLOBE.

Ya I don't think a company founded in 1908 is a "Boomer" company.
