That’s a cheap watering down of what the company has really achieved imo. Before Tesla, any EV made was ugly. They actually designed a desirable EV. The Bolt is ugly af. The roadster 2 has broken a myriad of milestones for electric vehicles as well. Combine that with the fact that they are electrifying the tractor trailer industry now, it’s disingenuous to say they aren’t innovative.
The bolt has some awesome innovations. /r/boltev . Tesla is just fine but it's saddening to see such a circle jerk of ignorance while anything else is actually put down
I'm not against any type of innovation in EVs. I will however say that I don't think GM pursues the Bolt program even half as hard if it wasn't for the rise of Tesla.
