General Motors, under the presidency of a very competent HR manager, will be manufacturing electric bicycles for sale in 2019. They will fold up and become smaller. They will not have turn signals, nor a seat belt.
I am not kidding. This may be a line extension of the Bolt. One wonders if Ms. Barra will write to Donald Trump and demand that 20% of bicycle sales must be electrified bikes. Bizarre? No kidding!
Meantime, GM's Caddy Division has discovered that it can lose money renting ("subscribing") cars for $1800/month all-in: insurance, maintenance, 2000 miles/month limit.
So the plan was cancelled.
Here's a thought: rent the bikes for $1800/month. You may be able to make money on that.
Meantime, it will be very, very, difficult to purchase a diesel-powered pickup truck from GM in the 2019 model year. Will a bicycle do, instead, sir? Would you like fries with that, sir?
