It takes 5-7 years to design and build a car.

I work at a company that provides vehicle forecasts. I used to do the powertrain forecast. MT probably got their information from one of our forecasts. Our forecast shows Camaro EV coming in 2026 as a 2027 MY.
One of the reasons GM is going so far down the EV path is that once you get the platform developed, developing additional vehicles off the same platform is easier with EVs than ICE. Today GM has more than a dozen vehicle platforms, about 10 - 12 different engine families, and 4 or 5 transmission families. With EVs, they have basically 4 vehicle platforms to build their entire vehicle portfolio from. Three or four electric motors and one basic drive unit that can be paired with any of the electric motors to support either FWD, RWD or AWD configurations. It will no longer take 5 years to design a vehicle from start to finish. Maybe three.
