GM did a fine job...but, they are far from perfect. Yes, technology costs money as does research and development. To develop a car from concept to production can cost millions....can they re-coup the costs?...only if sales are high. GM fell under pressure from environmental groups and the Government to produce an electrical, low emission car quickly....they did what was expected....the enviromentalists are happy and the Gov. gives tax deductions for purchase of this vehicle.....sorry, its still ugly. IMHO the concept with many improvements would sell better. To say they would loose money on an improved concept model with high technology is wrong...who knows??? They only made the soccer mom family model.....so there is nothing to compare.
Just my opinion....thats all.

What sells more, Corvettes or Malibus?
