GM is also taking some risks with the way it makes vehicles. These platforms will allow General Motors more flexibility in making cars, not just in the U.S. but around the world. And they may let GM really blur the lines between car and truck like no current crossover vehicle has ever done. Build it from Delta. Delta again can do it.
Sigma fills the bill.
Just as it should for a smaller rear-drive performance coupe. The payoff is that GM should be able to reduce development costs significantly by sharing parts and platforms among many products. In the future it should also be able to reduce the number of plants it needs it make the volume of vehicles it does. And General Motors will be able to more quickly respond to the changing tastes of the marketplace, thanks to the flexibility of these platforms and the plants that build them. There is no magic in this equation.
