Re: GMI Rumor: GM Cutting Another Division?

The thing is that Saturn is taking the place of Pontiac and Buick on brand level- sorty of sporty, sort of upscale.
The thing is, very few people are buying into the upscale Saturn. So get rid of it.
Saab has always been a money loser. So get rid of it.

Pontiac has a much wider dealer network... Holden / Opel will do much better there.
But maybe they could just change the signs and sell them as Holdens and Opels instead of Pontiacs?

Now we have just 3 channels...
Chevrolet
Cadillac
Holden / Opel / Buick

Holden / Opel / Buick don't have any U.S. specific cars, nor do they share anything with Chevy or Caddy.
