Re: Fortune: Deepening gloom at GM

Lambda is large.
VUE is extremely heavy.
GM isn't marketing its sparkplugless engine in the US.
EFlex is 18 months out.

GM is still too dependent on full sized SUVs and Trucks.
GM doesn't have a truly competitive compact car. It's still 1-2 years out.
GM doesn't have a subcompact car other than Aveo.

GM's efficiency initiatives are still 1-3 years out.
What does GM have now?

While the article is a little "the sky is falling," let's just say there's a lot of grey clouds gathering.
