      GM has negative margins on EVs:

      As does Ford:

      This takes seconds to research.

        yeah they are pricing gouging on trucks and SUVs while designing shiti products that’s expensive/hard to repair.

        also tesla seems to be doing fine. GM should git gud.

          If you think the repairability of American cars is bad, you’re in for a rough awakening with Chinese cars.
