@georgewashington3012 It will have towing range loss at the same rate as ICE trucks. I tow a boat with my RST and still average over 350 miles average with the boat behind me. I have not noticed any "Achilles heel". The only way for you to find out is to try it out by renting one at Hertz and do your own particular towing test. Most folks who have towed with this truck have not noticed any "Achilles heel" either.
Seems really obvious that state and federal regulators should establish criteria that these autonomous systems should have to pass. And it seems irresponsible for any serious journalist to report on this without saying that.
It should be called a SUV not a truck. The towing weight is too low for a truck. Not to mention it will start on fire 🔥 and burn in its future life, drain your pocketbook with a six figure purchase price, and GM will see your data they collect to anyone who wants it.
You do know that electric vehicles catch fire less often than gas cars? Fewer EVs catch fire each year than gas cars even when considering how many of each type are on the road… The percentage of gas cars that start on fire each year is almost 3 times as great as the percentage of EVs. These are stats from Europe but considering how the Us has more accidents related to passenger vehicles I assume that the same stats apply to the US
Testing on computers is great but they should also test on the roads before customers test it on the roads and find all the issues for GM. EV Blazer was full of glitches on arrival

Super cruise is surprisingly useful for towing. I use it all the time towing my 6k lb travel trailer with my 23 high country
Those computers seriously need some cable management.
Great video. I loved it.
My only question is. With all that extensive testing why is GM reliability still so bad
That's crazy, the amount of testing and the test rigs.
That's a big O' Battery. 🙂
Thanks Lexy. Fun stuff.
A woman towing a trailer hands free. That's terrifying
How far did you tow it ? That’s always the Achilles heel of EVs.

I have the Sierra EV and it towed my camper farther than my V8 F150 did on 26 gallons.
so cool
Very cool
While your there, did tou ask why thunderstorm grey and not the color Ive been seeing for almost a year?
Big fan of this, but those 24s are enormous and even with air suspension, seems like that would be a harrrsh ride on Northern U.S. roads.
Very easy 👍

You must be making stuff up because everything you just said is false! Maybe educate yourself before corrupting the minds of others!
