I think GM is just looking to make cuts because overall, business is looking cloudy, and they figure that Trump is going to target EVs somehow, so this is where they're cutting now, but these cuts will be broader in the very near future.

It's not like perspective EV buyers who aren't now interested are going to go by a brand new ICE vehicle now, they're just going to wait.
