GM: Best Warranty Coverage Out There

[Buck]

GM will have some interesting technology coming out in 2007 for the Yukon and Tahoe. As a consortium, GM, BMW, and Daimler-Chrysler have developed some nice hybrid technology. Combined with GMs Active Fuel Management system, the Tahoe should use 25% less fuel than the current model. This is based on the same Two-Mode-System they've been using for the past year on GM Busses.

PSA is also coming out with a hybrid system, but its combination, in typical European fashion, includes a diesel engine.

Mercedes and BMW are using Diesel direct injection tecnologiy for their gasoline engines. Meanwhile, Porsche is taking the variable geometry turbo technology from diesel engines and applying it their gasoline engines.

Certainly some exciting technology that is being put into practice.

What's the status of the low-thirst Tahoe/Yukon? When will it be out?

Also, GM confirmed that the Chevy Volt was scheduled for a 2010 release. As of today, it should take 36 months before it appears in showrooms.
