@The Raging Panda Presents " They’re not a stand alone solution to a very complex question." What is the "very complex question"? New ICE vehicles will be sold for at least another 12 years, but eventually they will go the way of the Horse and Buggy. Tesla Cybertruck will out tow a F-150, with ease, both power and range. EVs have such an advantage over ICE, there is little comparison. A small EV motor is way more powerful than a V8. Just spend a little time understanding the engineering and you will see. Most of the EVs out now, are just Gen 1, the real tech is coming soon and that should change more Gearheads minds.
One of the main reasons Legacy Auto wants to make the transition to EVs, is Profit. EVs are easier and cheaper to make. More importantly, they require a lot smaller workforce, facilities and supply chains. EVs will probably change up how Dealerships works, because there it virtually no annual maintenance required.

[@matthewstorm5188]

This is a tough call when it comes to pushrods. On one hand, pushrod engines have served GM well over the years. And pushrods are something GM knows very well. This gives GM a great incentive to keep on building pushrod engines.
On the other hand, it is tougher to design and build a pushrod engine that simultaneously produces good performance while keeping emissions low. This is very likely one reason why the Z06 Vette went OHC. And the fact that they DID essentially build a whole new DOHC smallblock suggests that GM may have reached the end of the line in terms of what they can accomplish with pushrods. The LT6 could in fact be the first of the Gen VI engines.
Of course, another possibility is an engine that could be either. This wouldn’t be terribly difficult to do, and would allow GM to use pushrods for lower power utilitarian-type engines (like trucks) while having the option for OHC in cars.

[@philip4193]

Yeah, they can still produce ICE engines way past 2035 and still meet those zero-emissions targets thanks to the introduction of synthetic fuels that are made with renewable energy; because these fuels are used by converting carbon emissions into fuel, the burning of this fuel in ICE engines is thus considered zero emission for EPA purposes . As long as those engines run on these synthetic fuels they're good to go; since most (if not all) of GM's engines can already run on up to E85, it's not too much of a stretch to say they'll be designed to run on 100% renewables well before the deadline.

This is a reality moment for GM and I think most other car/truck manufacturers. Lately more and more of the short comings of EVs have been made public such as drastic reduced range when towing and in cold weather. Long charge times and high prices at fast chargers which still take far more time to recharge than people are use to compared to filling up current gas engine vehicles.
I see the EVs currently on the market as throw away vehicles due to huge cost of replacing a spent or failed battery pack. Realistically I think the hybrids are a much better choice for reducing overall pollution. Hybrid batteries are much smaller and cheaper to replace. The engines in hybrids are very small and produce far less emissions, no charging stations are needed as the vehicle self charge. Hybrids are much easier to scale up or down to fit the variety needs that people and industry need without the restriction of pure electric vehicle. As time goes by pure electric may over come the draw backs. Time will tell.

THE LS A GENERIC FORD MOTOR. A REGURGITATED 427 FORD HIGHRISER ENGINE AKA 351 WINDSOR WITH RAISED PORTS. WHAT PATENTS OF FORD DESIGNS THAT HAVE RUN OUT. WILL GM COPY NEXT TO CREATE THE NEW V8 ENGINE.

[@christianmonreal9303]

Hopefully this will motivate ford and dodge to hold on to thier v8s for much longer ,but I highly doubt

[@CJColvin]

Well Ford is still making the legendary 5.0L Coyote V8

[@ramaswamynarayanaswamy4806]

@@CJColvin They will make it until 2035 I hope. I have no idea if they will suddenly turn around and discontinue it.

[@HowYouSayOwned]

Would love to see a duel injection fuel system on the next gen.

[@johnjames8641]

Injector in the manifold and head ?

[@huemongus3742]

Yes so would I. Direct injection and port injection. Ford does this and it keeps the intake valves nice and clean and improves gas mileage.

This is Great News, Really Great News 👍 I am a Gas engine, preferably V-8 engine, Car guy…I currently own a pampered 2015 Silverado 4x4 LTZ Crew Cab, fully optioned, with the Awesome 6.2 V-8, along with a three year old Chevy Impala LTZ Premier, also 😢fully optioned, with the powerful, yet economical V-6, and a very low mileage 2002 Mercedes-Benz SL 500, which is the last year of the Bruno Sacco designed 129 Series, and yes, it was offered with either a gas powered V-8, or V-12 Powertrain…the V-12, was the SL 600.
I share all this, because I/we prefer, and enjoy gas powered vehicles, and in the 1980’s we also enjoyed, and respected Mercedes-Benz diesel powered automobiles, the five cylinder series, to be exact. I, along with several folks I’ve spoken with the past year, have no want, of an EV car, truck or SUV, or a lawn tractor, for that matter…We all happen to feel, as you do, that 2035 may sound great, for politics, but most are thinking it will be more like 2050, with Gas engines still available, from Ford and GM, especially in SUV’s and Trucks.
I want to Thank you for your most Informative videos, as a GM guy, who truly appreciates your keeping us, In the know, in a factual, entertaining format…Please keep up the Great work.

[@dennisbrookssr2903]

PS: As long as GM builds Gas engines, We will continue to Buy them, especially models with that new small block V-8 👍

[@CJColvin]

I know and its a shame Dodge is getting rid of the legendary Hemi V8s.

[@Inferno45]

I hope this is good news for the Camaro and Corvette

[@thisdayage7997]

ill buy a horse before i buy an EV

[@jeffmiller3150]

Hopefully it'll just be putting the original Cadillac Black Wing engine into mass production!!!

[@boostedmaniac]

I hate when government forces the market. These politicians forget America is supposed to be land of the free. Let the market decide.

[@melissamcknight2916]

The big problem with GM is they need someone that uses a truck to design it and I do mean use it .Then explain why they haven't fixed the problem with the rusting out under the doors and cab corners before they are paid for.

[@phileasler5401]

I would rather see a range extender offered in the Silverado ev & Colorado ev trucks

[@geezer4962]

The head of Toyota north America supposedly said that it would take 10-20 years before EVs were considered mainstream.

[@leeoldershaw956]

This is like a company introducing a "new and improved" horse shoe nail in 1910 just after Ford introduced the Model T.

[@BG-vq9fd]

V-8 👍I love my 6.2 L AT4

[@RossMalagarie]

If GM wants to turbo a 4 cylinder why not off turbo V6 and turbo V8 gas engines? The 2023 Colorado and Canyons only have turbo 4 cylinder gas engines so why not also offer a turbo V6 gas? Now that would be a beast

[@neilvanderveer5180]

Thank goodness!

[@carguy3028]

I think with today’s technology a small turbo 4.8 v8 would be a good choice. Preferably overhead cam.

[@herbwheeler4470]

My guess it's going to be a sub 300 CI V8. Somewhere around 283 CI.

[@mrhighway]

The new Gen 6 engine is a DOHC with timing chain and cam phaser

[@josephwiese1114]

Just more moving parts that will fail, and that's if they're assembled correctly in the first place too.

[@jeffmiller3150]

[@josephwiese1114]

@@jeffmiller3150 First of all this article is about GM, but yes Toyota is experiencing problems with their 5.7 V8's , so yep even Toyota isn't as perfect & reliable as they used to be, still better than GM, Ford & Mopar though.

Do you deal with Cadillac Escalade's often at your dealership?

[@danh3718]

I believe GM is already testing multiple V8 engines. Given past issues, class action suits, competition.

[@Johnclark300]

I only stick to brands that are reliable,Nissan,Toyota,Honda,Suzuki,Izuzu.Mitubishi.

[@anthonysgarage]

Yup. I know this is obviously a GM channel, but Ford did the same thing. Two brand new V8 power plants. These massive companies would not make these investments if they weren't in the know. Nothin' against EV's, but batteries are resource hogs and extremely heavy. I'm no engineer, but I'm certain something will come along that will be much more practical.

[@carl16760]

engine block + fresh steel = love

[@jacobcornelius6747]

With the 2.7s numbers this thing should be pretty great on paper

[@johnh1932]

I love the idea of an efficient v8 coupled with some type of hybrid electric performance assist like in the corvette ERay. The performance potential is there with no real range or charging headaches.

[@bnssoftware3292]

My thoughts exactly

[@dylanhubbard5515]

Smart move GM. Dodge stepped out of the ring, so dominate the market. Sign me up. I want one.

[@jjano2320]

We're not dead yet!

[@BG-vq9fd]

Love my 6.2L Sierra

[@mikethetoolman8776]

some hurricanes arrived at my ram dealer last week but no one had drove them yet still not a v-8

[@AndreS_-df2nw]

I'd really like to see a ~4.0L version of that inline 6 duramax too.

[@mightymikethebear]

While this is interesting news it does not matter. All the auto makers are offering vehicles that are far too expensive. New trucks cost north of 30k for a base model, not in my driveway!!

[@danielb-c9100]

I hope GM gets rid of the DOD s***

[@richardmartin3243]

The 5.3 a brand is coming apart on it the 6.2L It's coming apart because they use plastic inside the engine they cannot hold up to the heat or the pressure causing the roller lifters to go sideways and tear the Cam up along with the engine in the heads and everything else why they cannot build something of quality and produce

[@Marc816]

I'm glad the V8 lives!!!!! S___ on electric cars!!!!!!!

[@actuallyrealcover]

Glad to see V8s aren't dead yet.

[@76MUTiger]

Yes, it's good news! Environmentalists will continue to drive up the cost of petroleum, so we'll need better mileage. But electrical generation will take 30+ years to catch up WHEN the environmentalists stop blocking everything. So, you'll have a Catch-22 (as illustrated in California last summer): you must drive an EV but you're not allowed to charge them because it draws more power than the grid can deliver. So, the longer I can have a good ICE or hybrid the better off *I* will be.

[@jroch41]

Good overview.

[@BeamerTime354]

Please oh please up the power a LOT🤞🙏

[@BrianMello]

I don't need to be greedy, 500hp N/A would be a lot of fun.

Of course you don’t lol you just go hop in the hummer for speed 😝

[@timdehoogh8441]

I prefer gas or diesel engines as they are tried and true power plants EV's and charging needs to be increased like to level 4 chargers with out any drop in charging or throttling of charging plus increase the range of the EV's

[@rickreid81]

This video failed to mention quality control or lack their of @ GM. Thats why I dont own a GM vehicle. (Garbage Motors).
I whish they would step up the quality.
