	2003 SEMA Show - GM Enthusiast Network
		But now a new GM engine is creating the same buzz that accompanied the small-block’s debut nearly 50 years ago: the inline four-cylinder, 16-valve DOHC Ecotec is poised to become the next big thing from GM in high-volume production cars, high-performance specialty vehicles and high-horsepower competition applications.
		GM Racing has established Ecotec’s performance credentials on the track by setting speed records on the Bonneville Salt Flats with a race-prepared 700-horsepower turbocharged engine and winning championships in NHRA front-wheel-drive drag racing classes with turbocharged Ecotec engines that produce more than 1,000 horsepower.
		GM Racing’s front-wheel-drive Cavalier and Sunfire entries in the NHRA Summit Sport Compact Drag Racing Series sprint the quarter-mile in 8 seconds with their 1000-plus-horsepower race-prepared turbocharged Ecotec engines.

	GM - only GM (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		GM understands the issue of our nation's dependency on foreign oil as well as anyone, and we're doing as much or more than anyone to address the issue, from making our gasoline engines more fuel-efficient to investing heavily in hybrid and fuel cell powertrains.
		GM was and is proud to have brought the electric vehicle concept as far as it did and further than any other electric vehicle project attempted by any other automaker around the globe.
		GM's fourth-generation hydrogen fuel cell vehicle, which enhances the technology found in today's HydroGen3 fuel cell vehicle, (currently in demonstration fleets around the world), will be introduced later this year and will represent a leap forward toward a production ready version of a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle.

	GM Fuel Tanks
		GM estimates that between 300 and 500 people a year are killed in fires that erupt in its vehicles when they crash.
		The callous reasoning: if GM could install a safer fuel tank for $2.40 per car or less, it stood to save money; anything more meant it was cheaper to pay for the deaths than to save lives.
		GM had repeatedly tried—and continues--to quash motions requesting the evidence and to seek protective orders based on claims that the documents are protected by attorney-client privilege.

	Gen III GM Small Block, Doug Anderson, Engine Builder, April 2005
		GM also made sure that the overall size and shape of the "package" would fit in a FWD application, too, so it should be no surprise that the Pontiac Grand Prix GXP is available with the 5.3L this year.
		The GM engineers did their homework when they designed these engines, so they haven't had to make a lot of changes, but there are four engines, each with a different combination of parts, so there are still three rods, four blocks, six cranks and seven heads to keep track of so far.
		GM spent a lot of time designing the heads with "replicated ports," making sure that all the intake ports and exhaust ports were identical to each other so the airflow was exactly the same for every cylinder.

	GM Adds New 2.8L V-6 VVT Variant to Global V-6 Engine Family (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		The global engine family was designed to encompass a range of displacements to meet market requirements around the world.
		By starting with a totally new architecture, engineers were free to anticipate many divergent uses for the global V-6 and design it for exceptional flexibility, avoiding the problems that arise when a powertrain designed for a relatively limited purpose must be adapted for a different vehicle architecture or drive layout.
		The global V-6 engine family is built at GM Powertrain's St. Catharines engine plant and Holden's Port Melbourne facility.

	Daewoo Kalos - Wikicars
		The Daewoo Kalos is a subcompact automobile built by GM Daewoo, a South Korean subsidiary of General Motors.
		The original Daewoo Kalos is based on a GM Daewoo platform called T200, which itself is a replacement for the T100 platform used in Daewoo Lanos.
		In the beginning of 2005, the Daewoo brand was dropped by GM in favor of Chevrolet in Western Europe, so the Kalos was rebadged Chevrolet Kalos accordingly (along with the introduction of the 3-door).

	EV-1 White Paper
		GM took the lead in zero-emission vehicles with its solar-powered Sunraycer, which set a world record in the 3000-km 1987 World Solar Challenge race across Australia.
		GM's Sean McNamara organized the PrEView program, in which the 50 cars would be lent for 1-2 week periods to consumers who agreed to log their experiences.
		In December 1996, GM provided a limited launch of the EV1 in what many believe to be a quid pro quo arrangement with CARB, which agreed to delay implementation of the first phase of the Zero Emission Vehicle mandate that had been scheduled to go into effect in 1998 [Kirsch 2000].

	Green Car Congress: GM Unveils Opel Antara Twin-Turbo Diesel Concept (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		GM simulations calculate that the engine, combined with the six-speed automatic transmission, will give the Antara GTC concept a top speed of more than 210 km/h and an acceleration from zero to 100 km/h in around 8 seconds.
		GM has been working on the twin-turbo technology for several years, first applying it publicly in an earlier engineering study in an Opel Vectra presented at the Essen show in November 2003.
		GM should be considering this technology for the U.S. Market, but engineers in Detroit probably won't consider it.

		Could this be one of the reasons GM lost 1.1 billion dollars in the first quarter of 2005?

	FYI Blog: The Ban on `Rubbish’ in The New York Times
		GM is wrong for acting against both the interests of America for the last twenty years; and, because of their constant anti-environment stance and actions all those years, also against the interests of humanity.
		GM protestation that it is "working on" alternative fuel or hybrid vehicles and its correct statement that it already has some hybrid buses out there is quite irrelevant.
		Evidently GM's is meant to be a showcase for self-pity.
