"GM Dealers Push for Hybrid Models Amid EV Demand Shift"

General Motors is facing challenges with its electric vehicle shift, with slow EV sales and delays in its Ultium platform. A suggestion has been made to bring back the Chevy Volt, a successful hybrid vehicle discontinued in 2019, as dealers are urging GM to re-enter the hybrid market due to customer demand for a middle ground between gas-engine cars and EVs. While there are arguments against hybrids in the face of the climate crisis, there is evidence of demand for smaller, sedan-like vehicles, and GM has previously backtracked on discontinuing certain models. Bringing back the Chevy Volt with an Ultium-branded powertrain could prove beneficial for GM's future lineup.
