More GM lip service.

“If you get in early enough at the platform development stage designed for both right-hand drive and left-hand drive, then really, the world’s your oyster in terms of what you can bring in,” Mr Buttner said.


If that was really the case then there would already be a number of US GM models on sale today. But it just doesn't add up.
It's all well and good to say they can just make them in RHD, but if the numbers don't add up, like they didn't for Camaro factory RHD, then it just won't happen.

They will not just make RHD models to sell a few hundred in Australia and NZ per month, and with Chevrolet pulling out of Europe and other regions then they can't spread those RHD development costs across the UK or anywhere else. anymore.

It's all just typical GM bull**** trying to talk up a bright future when the reality is the brand is toxic.
