G. David Felt Staff Writer Alternative Energy - www.CheersandGears.com Personal Mobility Redefined along with Auto Sharing Seems in today's society we have clearly two camps, those that believe in change for the future and those that see no reason for change from what already works. GM has committed to diving into personal mobility by redefining what it should be. GM say right now has never been a bigger disrupter than ever in the Auto industry with EV's and plug in Hybrids. GM is pushing forward with their Drive NYC car sharing program and their Multi Model EV transportation system on Jiao Tong University China. More can be read here at: "Redefining Personal Mobility" GM has also kicked off this two Year study into personal mobility. Full story of this study at a Chinese University can be read here: GM and Shanghai Jiao Tong University Auto Sharing Pilot Program Check out all the photos of this new auto the EN-V 2.0

It is far more common these days for MB to sell this vans like that (alongside the S Class) than it is for GM to share those two lots (Caddy and Chevy), of which they have reduced over the years btw. Not one Cadillac dealership in the Phoenix valley area shares any space with any other GM make. Washington state is down to a single dealer up north that carries all GM product lines in one massive building, but they did post a sing for a new stand alone lot for Cadillac. I suspect that is part of the continued Cadillac is apart from GM strategy. I believe in the next few years all Cadillac dealers will be stand alone.

^ +1 I would agree with Bill, at one time I would have thought RAM was safe, but now they are hanging on by name and hard core loyalist. If it was not for the Cummins loyalty this line would be dead. With all very tired and aged products, Sergio is killing off everything just about. The only line I see any strong value left in is Jeep. All this to keep the Lazy socialist Italians building crap Fiats and now crap Alfas again.

+1 ^ So true, you would think some other auto company would have broken down the VW auto and discovered the cheat software earlier.

The Buick Envision will sell to those that see Cadillac as too expensive and an old persons auto. They want a family luxury CUV and this fits that image. I can see families buying this rather than a Cadillac.

Mitsu just needs to merge with Mazda and a few other small auto companies to be one larger company with a complete product line.

This could bankrupt FCA if it is true. Be interesting to see if their diesels can pass the same test the college did on the VW autos.

At this point, the report would probably increase the criminal investigations and fines and really bankrupt VW. So for them at this point, better to buy back the cheating crap and destroy it and move on. Still like to know how much they will pay for buying back the auto's and if the CEO really knew as little as he claims. I find this hard to believe.
