[Comment From Dave Tuttle]
Does GM see a lot of potential in creating performance and 10,000 lb tow capable Voltec powertrain derivatives. It seems like the mindset is that Voltec technology is for petroleum replacement...but given the torque characteristics of electric drive, why not expand the market potential to performance cars and SUVs/Trucks that would have simplified powertrains, more capability, and better fuel economy?

I've always thought that Opel product development had a great positive influence on the quality of small cars at GM. It gave a feeling of quality & near-luxury not found in our domestic brands. How can GM create that same feeling of quality within customers without such a source?

Toyota plans on going production of its fuel cell vehicle by 2015. GM's Fuel Cell appears ready for production by then or earlier. Why not make a commitment to hydrogen?

[Comment From 4253 Analytica]
Why doesn't GM keep making the 3800 engine? I think it's still one of the best engines around.

[Comment From Larry Martin]
GM, and other US makers as well, has seemed incapable of putting quality interiors (think Honda Accord) in its whole line of cars since time immemorial. Changing this would go a long, long way toward improving "perceived quality" and let GM get the credit for much improved overall quality performanc3e. When's it going to happen (no weasel words please)?.

[Comment From Exploder]
What is the future of RWD vehicles at all GM brands, particularly the Zeta platform?

10:32

[Comment From George Bower]
I understand that one of the primary methods of making hydrogen is to use natural gas as a source instead of water. Please explain the the advantage of using natural gas instead of water.

When will the Chevy Cruze enter the market?

[Comment From Joe Turpen]
I am a salesperson at a full line GM dealership. Are we gonna get back in the mini van business. It is hard sometimes to switch that customer to the Acadia , Enclave or Traverse. Some people just want a small van.

[Comment From Brett]
Will the C7 Corvette finally get a class competitive interior?

10:45

[Comment From Louis]
Will there be a small displacement turbo engine powered small GM vehicle to compete with Mazda2, Ford Fiesta? How soon can they be in the market?

10:45

[Comment From Marc]
Tom, can you please explain the why GMC and Chevy trucks both exist, when most of their products are very similar? Is it just because buick dealers need trucks to sell? I heard bob lutz say that GMC products are "professional grade" but what does that mean?

10:45

[Comment From Marc]
i agree. i want a refined small vehicle too!

[Comment From Rex]
Will we See a new Buick Riveria built of the CTS coupe ?

10:49

[Comment From Kyle]
Hi Tom, If the CTS wagon is a success can we hope to see more wagons in the US? Would a Insignia/Regal sports tourer be possible?

10:49

[Comment From Rex]
Can you tell us more about GMC's lineup...I am very interested in the new GMC Terrain

10:49

[Comment From Marc]
I hear a lot about European quality with interior materials. Having never been in a european market car, what are we missing out on and will future GM products be bringing those standards over here?

10:53

[Comment From J^Lee]
What other platforms is GM investigating for the use under the Voltec platform?

10:53

[Comment From andre lavoie]
could you comment on where GM is with boosted engine technology (such as Ford's Ecoboost V6) and possible applications for these engines.
