GMC Pro Safety Packages Added to 2021 Models

Safety features are a hot topic these days, and most automakers are scrambling to offer the latest and greatest tech items to entice buyers. That includes General Motors and GMC, which is now adding new GMC Pro Safety packages to specific 2021 models.

Essentially, GMC's previous safety tech features packages, which include the Driver Alert Package, Driver Alert Package 1, and Driver Alert Package II, will be gradually replaced in GMC's product lineup with what the automaker is now calling the GMC Pro Safety Plus Packages.

However, these new packages are more than a simple rebranding effort. Rather, the content of the new packages also changes.

More specifically, the new GMC Pro Safety Package includes the following popular features:

Forward Collision Alert
Automatic Emergency Braking
Following Distance Indicator
Front Pedestrian Braking
IntelliBeam Auto High Beams
Lane Keep Assist
Lane Departure Warnings

Meanwhile, the GMC Pro Safety Plus Package also adds in the following features:

Lane Change Alert
Side Blind Zone Alert
Rear Cross Traffic Alert

What's more, Pro Safety Plus adds in Rear Park Assist in certain models.

For now, the first 2021 models year vehicles to equip the GMC Pro Safety Package and GMC Pro Safety Plus package include the GMC Terrain, the GMC Acadia, the GMC Yukon, and the GMC Yukon XL.

That said, we imagine that the long-term plan will be to replace and rebrand the safety offerings for the entire lineup with the two new packages listed above.

Cadillac CT6 Named Best Upper Midsize Premium Car In 2020 J.D. Power APEAL Study

J.D. Power published the results from its 2020 Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout Study this week, with the Cadillac CT6 topping the upper mid-size premium car segment in the survey.

The J.D. Power APEAL Study attempts to gauge how much excitement and emotional attachment a brand or vehicle is able to generate in customers. Intended to serve as a complement to the J.D. Power Initial Quality Study, the APEAL study helps identify companies and models "that create joy for their owners," that helps overcome "any negatives," owners experience related to quality and overall reliability. For example, a sports car that drives great but perhaps has quality issues may do well in the APEAL study. Brands and vehicles are measured on a 1,000 - point scale when tabulating the results.

The Cadillac CT6 finished atop the upper mid-size premium car segment, beating our the BMW 5 Series. The CT6 was also the only upper mid-size premium car to finish above the segment average with regards to APEAL score. The upper mid-sized segment is for larger luxury sedans, with J.D. Power referring to the Cadillac CT5 and vehicles in its segment as "mid-size" and to vehicles like the Audi A3 as "small." The CT6 was also one of the only eight vehicles on sale to top its segment in both the Initial Quality study and the APEAL study. This is a sign the sedan is performing well both with regard to build quality and inciting positive emotions in its owners when they are behind the wheel.

Chevrolet Blazer Ranked Best Mid-Size SUV In 2020 J.D. Power 'APEAL' Study

The J.D. Power APEAL Study serves as a complement to the company's Initial Quality Study and measures the amount of emotional attachment and excitement a vehicle generates in owners. Vehicles and brands are measured across 37 different attributes, ranging from the "sense of comfort and luxury they feel when climbing into the driver's seat to the feeling they get when they step on the accelerator," J.D. Power says, all of which help it determine how much appeal a company or vehicle has to its owner. The study is based on over 87,000 responses from owners of new vehicles.

The Chevrolet Blazer topped the study for non-premium SUVs, while the Nissan Murano was second in the segment and the Hyundai Santa Fe third. The Blazer is newer than both the Murano and the Santa Fe and is more powerful thanks to its available 308 horsepower 3.6L LGX V6 engine. The Blazer also stands out in the crowded mid-size SUV segment thanks to its sports car-inspired exterior appearance and available RS trim.

C8 Corvette Cockpit Earns A Wards Automotive 10 Best Interiors Award

Once upon a time, car reviewers and critics would frequently criticize the Chevrolet Corvette's interior for its sub-par build quality and abundance of hard plastics, but not anymore. The C7 Corvette was a massive step forward for the nameplate with regards to interior design and quality and the C8 Corvette took things even further with its contemporary layout and swath of high-end materials.

Now General Motors is reaping the rewards of the Corvette's improved interior - literally. The C8 Corvette cabin was named to Wards' Automotive's 10 Best Interiors list for 2020. Wards' handed the C8 Corvette compliments for its high quality leather-wrapped instrument panel, "handsomely configured" push-button transmission and the generously used microfiber suede material that is found on the instrument panel, center console, door trim, steering wheel, headliner and pillar trim. Editors were also impressed by the mix of metal, leather and available carbon-fiber trim, saying GM "achieved great harmony" with the usage of the various high-end materials.

The Corvette's cabin doesn't just look the part, either. One Wards' editor said the C8 is the "comfiest Corvette yet," and applauded the car's comfy seats and ergonomic dash layout. They also liked the small partition that sits between the driver and passenger and houses a row of buttons, saying this design details helps to envelop the driver in a sort of cocoon and adds to the overall high quality feel when in the driver's seat.

Lastly, editors praised Chevrolet for offering an abundance of interior upholstery colours and combinations, which include Adrenaline Red, Morello Red, and Twilight / Tension Blue, among others.

Oshawa GM Plant Begins Production of 10 Million Face Mask

Workers at Oshawa's GM plant have begun work on producing 10 million face masks over the next year, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced on Tuesday.

"As we speak GM employees are making these masks, they will keep people safe and help slow the spread of COVID-19," said Trudeau in his public remarks on May 26. "For the autoworkers in Oshawa, this contract will support good, well paying jobs in an industry that's faced tough times."

The formal announcement from Trudeau comes after GM stated in April that a portion of its sprawling Oshawa plant would be converted to face mask production. At the time, GM officials said the company would produce a million masks per months for the Public Health Agency of Canada at cost.

In a statement on Tuesday, GM officials said the company received its medical device license to produce the mask on April 22 and the machinery has been installed, materials had been sourced and workers had been trained over the past month.

"This is one of the proudest moments in our history to be able to step-up and support all Canadians during this challenging time," said GM Canada president and managing director Scott Bell in a statement. "With the support and collaboration of the Government of Canada, we will start production in Oshawa today and deliver 10 million face masks to the Public Health Agency of Canada over the next year."

Bell recently detailed safety steps at GM plants including screening, cleaning and sanitizing, wearing protective equipment and social distancing.

In April, GM Canada Vice-president of corporate affairs David Paterson said the Oshawa site was selected not only because of its capacity but because it had clean room facilities. That allow GM to source material and build a Canadian mask-making clean room with enhanced safety protocols.

Here Are The 2021 Cadillac Escalade Tow Ratings

Now, we're back to tell you about the 2021 Cadillac Escalade tow ratings. In short, the new Escalade's trailering capabilities with the standard, naturally-aspirated 6.2L V8 L87 gasoline engine are as follows:

The regular-length 2021 Escalade can tow a maximum of 8,200 pounds 2WD models or 8,000 for 4WD models
The extended-length 2021 Escalade ESV can tow a maximum of 8,100 pounds 2WD models or 7,900 pounds for 4WD models

Meanwhile, models equipped with the optional (but free-of-charge) 3.0L I-6 LM2 turbo-diesel Duramax engine have a maximum trailering capacity that's 200 pounds lower than that of the gas engine. To wit:

The regular-length 2021 Escalade Diesel can tow a maximum of 8,000 pounds for 2WD models or 7,800 pounds for 4WD models
The extended-length 2021 Escalade ESV Diesel can tow a maximum of 7,900 pounds for 2WD models or 7,700 pounds for 4WD models

GM Targets May 18th For Reopening Plants In U.S. and Canada After COVID-19 Shutdown

General Motors is targeting May 18th for reopening its U.S. and Canadian vehicle assembly plants, the automaker said in a memo sent to UAW members on Tuesday.

"GM plans to begin a limited, cadenced, and site-specific approach for a return to the workplace in many of our North American manufacturing facilities," the memo said. "We are targeting Monday, May 18, and we are collaborating with state governments and union partners. We are confident that we have an approach that allows us to move into this next phase with safety as our guide."

Crucially, GM has agreed to pay workers who are forced to quarantine for up to 14 days. The UAW has said the Big Three must agree to pay workers who are self quarantining after contracting COVID-19 or coming into contact with someone who had the virus, as employees may be apprehensive to report symptoms if they believed they would lose pay over it.

GM outlined the safety measures it will take to curb the spread of COVID-19 at its production plants once they come back online. These protocols will include taking employees' temperatures when they arrive at work, setting up hand sanitizing stations and staggering work shifts to reduce the number of employees that are concentrated in one area. The automaker developed the handbook using lessons learned at some of its plants in China and Korea, along with its ventilator production facility in Kokomo, Indiana.

GM is expected to make an official announcement with regard to the May 18th restart date sometime on Wednesday.

General Motors Will Begin Making COVID-19 Ventilators This Week

General Motors will officially begin making ventilators at its components plant in Kokomo, Indiana this week and will ship the first 6,000 units to hospitals before June 1st.

GM is making Ventec Life Systems brand ventilators under a government contract that will see it deliver a total of 30,000 of the life-saving devices before the end of August. GM workers were already present at the Kokomo components plant last week preparing the site to produce the ventilators. Ventec has had to retain GM workers on how to make ventilators, while the automaker has also begun producing the necessary components necessary to put them together. In a statement, GM spokes person Dan Flores told Automotive News the company is not making the ventilators at a profit.

In addition to the ventilators, GM is also making face masks at its Warren Transmission plant in Michigan to help address the PPE supply shortage at many U.S. hospitals. It began shipping the face masks out last week and has since doubled the production output on the masks.

GM has implemented strict safety measures at the Kokomo and Warren facilities to protect employees working there. Employees have their temperature taken with a contactless thermometer upon arriving at the plant and work at spaced out work stations. The work stations and common area are also sanitized and wiped down every few hours.

GM is partnering with Ventec Life Systems to help increase production of ventilators

General Motors is partnering with Ventec Life Systems to help increase production of ventilators that are needed in hospitals dealing with patients who have the novel coronavirus, the companies announced Friday. In the most severe cases of COVID-19 infection, patients need the assistance of ventilators to breath, and there are widespread concerns that the US does not have enough ventilators to meet the coming demand.

Seattle-based Ventec is one of a handful of ventilator manufacturers in the US, according to NBC news, and already has ramped up its production. Ventec CEO Chris Kiple says the company is aiming to produce 1,000 machines per month (up from its usual 150 per month), in the next 90 days, and eventually, to produce 2,000 ventilators per month.

Ventec will rely on GM's manufacturing, logistics and purchasing to help build more ventilators more quickly. GM Chairman and CEO Mary Barra said in a statement that GM would "continue to explore ways to help in this time of crisis."

The SUV offers GM's existing Magnetic Ride Control system, but the vehicle is also offered with a new Air Ride Adaptive Suspension, available on the new range-topping High Country model and the Z71 off-road model. The Air Ride Adaptive Suspension has automatic load leveling and ride height adjustment, with up to four inches of adjustment available.

The SUV also features up to exterior camera views to help make the towing experience less stressful, along with an in-vehicle trailering app with trailer profiles, trailer tire pressure and temperature monitoring.

As far as active safety goes, Automatic Emergency Braking will be standard on all models. Some of the available safety equipment will include HD Surround Vision, Rear Pedestrian Alert, Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert and Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning. The vehicle's available Side Blind Zone Alert system works with trailers, too.

GM says it will also offer nine exterior colors on the SUV including three all-new colors: Empire Beige Metallic, Cherry Bomb Tintcoat and Darkmoon Blue Metallic.

General Motors just pulled the sheets on the all-new 2021 Chevrolet Suburban. Celebrating its 85^th anniversary next year, the Chevrolet Suburban is the longest-running nameplate in automotive history, and now enters its 12^th generation.

The changes start from the ground up, and include an all-new architecture that increases the wheelbase by 4.1 inches. However, overall length was increased by just 1.3 inches.

CHEVROLET CORVETTE STINGRAY NAMED 2020 MOTORTREND CAR OF THE YEAR

Oshawa, Ont. (November 19, 2019). - The redefined Chevrolet Corvette Stingray won the 2020 MotorTrend Car of the Year award, earning the mid-engine masterpiece a top spot among the best vehicles the world has to offer for the third time in Corvette's history.

The coveted honour, previously awarded to Corvette in 1984 and 1998, was presented to Tadge Juechter, Corvette executive chief engineer and Michael Simcoe, General Motors vice president of Global Design, at an event featuring industry executives and celebrity guests at MotorTrend's headquarters in El Segundo.

"It's an honour for the Corvette team to receive this coveted award from MotorTrend against the best the industry has to offer," said Juechter. "Our design and engineering teams spent several years sweating the details to deliver the first mid-engine Corvette. To have a third party validate our hard work makes it all worthwhile."

Chevrolet's first-ever production mid-engine Corvette represents the fastest, most powerful entry-level Corvette in the vehicle's 66-year history, reaching 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds when equipped with the Z51 Performance Package. The reimagined icon boasts exotic proportions and a modern design inspired by racing and aeronautics to deliver unprecedented levels of quality, customization, technology and craftsmanship. Powered by the next-generation 6.2L Small Block V-8 LT2 engine, the 2020 Corvette Stingray packs 495 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque.

"We have been looking forward to the arrival of the mid-engine Chevrolet Corvette for so long, that you'd think there is no way it could live up to the weight of expectations, but the all-new C8 Corvette epitomizes what it means to be MotorTrend's 2020 Car of the Year," said MotorTrend Editor-in-Chief Edward Loh. "Corvette delivers stunning design and world-class performance, around an exotic mid-ship layout, yet it remains a truly livable grand touring sports car, all at an almost unbelievable price point. Our 2020 Car of the Year is the one that democratizes the supercar - the Chevrolet Corvette."

Production on the Corvette will begin in February 2020 at General Motors Bowling Green Assembly Plant in Kentucky. True to its roots of attainable performance, the 2020 Corvette Stingray upholds its no-compromise value proposition, starting at $69,998 (including Destination Freight Charge of $2,000, excluding tax, title, license, dealer fees and optional equipment).
