Anyone else feeling like..."what the heck GM!??"

I fully expected GM to beat FORD to the market with a decent/sporty electric CUV and truck. Seems like GM has been touting their advances in electric vehicles for years, but now it is looking like Ford will beat GM to the market with both, as the all electric F-150 is expected to make it's debut soon.

GM has the Bolt, but that thing was never going to sell to the masses. A PHEV or BEV CUV is where it is at, and for years now a small to mid-size PHEV or BEV CUV was going to be the only thing that is going to take off. Why they never built a CUV on the Voltec chassis is beyond me. Now Ford has got it with a full BEV. Sure, there is no guarantee the Mach-E is going to sell well, but I think out of all of them, it has the best chance. Might just be me, but I think it looks miles better than a comparable Tesla.
