Comme vous le savez, la grève opposant le syndicat UAW (United Auto Workers) à General Motors est désormais terminée... c’est la lutte, finale... mais bon... l’important étant que pour calmer les ardeurs des syndicalistes armés de sandwichs à la saucisse et de pancartes, General Motors s’est engagé sur les véhicules qui seront produits dans les 16 usines du groupe jusqu’en 2013.

Petit bémol, l’information n’est pas tombée dans l’oreille d’un sourd puisque toute la toile dispose à présent d’un listing de la future gamme de GM… tout comme la concurrence donc… certainement les représailles d’un syndicaliste mécontent de voir sa requête de triple Bic Mac XXL refusée !

Ci-dessous, la liste complète des usines avec les futurs modèles… j’ai surligné en gras les choses qui nous intéressent en tant qu’européens et ajouté des liens très instructifs sur la politique de plateforme du groupe GM.
