In fact, like Ford and Fiat-Chrysler, General Motors has followed its corporate colleagues in the exact opposite direction,In 2019, General Motors sold just over 2.8 million vehicles in the United States., with a fairly even split right down the middle between people movers and pickups.

An overall strategy aimed at reducing the effects of fossil fuel consumption on global warming and resource depletion would take the form of a cohesive hybrid, battery-electric, and fuel-efficient sedan and hatchback lineup.

With few other options as automakers the world over squeeze sedans from the showrooms, buyers are turning in droves to trucks and SUVs, and General Motors wants and needs every last dollar it can get before the music stops and the lights go out on the sport-utility party.
