Similar experience from a European.

I own a 2015 Vauxhall Adam. It's a brilliant little petrol car, 3 doors, very small and very reliable.

GM canned the model in 2019. It makes no sense to me, if they had stuck a battery in it for an electric version I'd have been sold in a heartbeat.

But no, GM wants to focus on big cars that I don't want. I don't want anything bigger than a 3 door hatchback, I'm only 20 and have no kids, why do I need some massive fuckoff SUV????

I will never understand how the same people that made the Volt and the Bolt made the Hummer EV

It's such a different style, architecture, and platform that you practically can't share any parts. So whatever they learned from 10 years of selling EVs went out the window.

Unfortunately, GM wants to get rid of Android Auto and Apple Carplay. They want to exclusively use Android Automotive. It looks like Android Auto but it's standalone. GM claims this way the smart software will be more integrated with the car's hardware... which sounds ridiculous to me.

Edit: More clear (I hope)

I suspect that Chevy is worried they won't be able to compete against the Kia EV price point, but that's just speculation.
