		GM started focusing again on India by 2002 and they took the brave decision to retire Opel brand eventually and launch and concentrate on the effervescent Chevrolet brand.

	GM 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.

		GM has refused to discuss it in the way they have discussed future Cadillacs, the recently introduced Corvette, or their move towards rear-wheel drive in many of their future cars such as Buick, Pontiac or Saturn.
		GM initially did plan on replacing the F-body, but by the late '90s, the emphasis within the camp of then-product boss Ron Zarella was on trucks, and that's where the resources went.
		Officially, GM wanted to tear down the plant because of their belief the property was more valuable as a vacant lot than a 2.1 million square-foot plant, much too large for just about any use other than a high-production vehicle factory.

	Global Insight // Same-Day Analysis
		Although GM's global market share fell dramatically y/y on the quarter to 13.8% from 15.1%, it still represents an improvement from 13.1% in the first quarter and is largely attributable to the lack of a repeat of the volume-grabbing incentive campaign in the United States this summer.
		GM has been gaining considerable traction with its turnaround programme in North America, as demonstrated by the second-quarter results and is on course to show considerable improvement in the region in the coming months.

		GM's price reduction may usher in a wave of more affordable hardware that XM or Sirius won't have to subsidize, which would do wonders to their income statements.
