We need to move more quickly to take advantage of opportunities, when do you think that someone will be able to buy a RHD V series coupe? 2030 or never?

It's because GM doesn't see a lot of opportunity in the RHD market. Apparently, all their attempts at selling LHD cars in RHD regions has met with failure, so they have decided that their cars don't sell well in these regions for some reason, and have decided not to pay attention to these markets.
Fact is.... if GM wants to go global, then every single one of their cars and platforms needs to be ambidextrous. It is not that way, nor do I believe that will ever change. because GM has seen their LHD cars not sell well in RHD regions. That's all the reason they need.
