Volt sales are barely half of what the Pontiac Aztec sold every year...and that platform is widely panned as an absolute failure...and of course GM cancelled the Aztec.

This is insane.

And we haven’t even begun to hear the next story (which will somehow be a surprise to the EV cheerleaders) - the resale value for a Volt is going to be terrible.

One thing for sure, the aztec was one ugly pizza chit.

The Aztec was a brilliant success compared to the Volt. It was ugly, but practical. They’ll soon be collector’s items.

I sent a note to GM when they cancelled the upgraded Pontiac Fiero (with a production of 20,000 units).

Quote from Internet: "By 1988, more power, better looks, and a $30 million new suspension brought the Fiero closer to its original promise — just in time for the corporation to bring down the ax".
