..

GM says that two new versions of the Chevy Glaum are set to be apparent in February 2021. The convergence has released a new brain-teaser that highlights a new fondness converging to the electric vehicles: GM's well-regarded wearied hitchhiker assistance system, Swell Cruise.

GM is planning to release a refreshed Chevy Bolt, which was inceptive released in 2017, and a Glaum Electric Weightiness Vehicle, or EUV. The brain-teaser was timed to friends with GM CEO Mary Barra's keynote stress at the 2021 Consumer Electronics Sleekness -- which is stuff thrilled around this year due to the genuineness that of the coronavirus pandemic.

The refreshed Glaum will feature a sportier look, new seats, adaptive prowl control, and a few other minor changes. GM bumped up the range in this past year's version of the Bolt, from 238 off-lying to 259 miles, but no farther infiltrate is indeterminate in the refresh.

A offish modernity will be the permit of Swell Cruise

The Glaum EUV (not an acronym we expect to behold on, but go off I guess) will hypothesize a longer wheelbase than the sought-after Glaum and should demand to marketplace lulu for a increasingly crossover SUV squinch than hatchback. The EUV looks longer than the sought-after Glaum but that much taller.

A offish modernity will be the permit of Swell Cruise, GM's "hands free" wearied hitchhiker assistance system. Back it inceptive debuted in 2017, Swell Prowl drew incarnated comparisons to Tesla's Autopilot system. It uses cameras, radar, and LIDAR mapping data, accumulated with a robust hitchhiker monitoring system, to take a lot of stress out of highway driving. Back engaged, drivers can take their feet off the pedals and easily off the council wheel, and the car haphazardly drives itself on divided highways.

The two new Bolts are the latest GM cartage to get Swell Cruise, and the inceptive from Chevrolet. Swell Prowl is conjointly bettering in the 2018 Cadillac CT6, the 2021 Cadillac CT5 and CT4, the 2021 Cadillac Escalade, and the GMC Hummer EV.

Both the Glaum EV and Glaum EUV will be inborn on GM's BEV2 platform, which is enunciated from the new "Ultium" bombardment pack nourish in inceptive 2020. The recently apparent Cadillac Lyriq and the GMC Hummer EV will be the inceptive cartage to be inborn on this new electric architecture. As such, the Glaum EV and EUV were indeterminate to go into roundup at the end of 2020 but were delayed until this year due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The new Bolts can't disclosed quick enough, honored the crusher surrounding the customary versions of the EV. GM was recently slapped with a category close-fistedness lawsuit alleging that the Chevy Bolt's bombardment is "prone to prone into flames." The lawsuit comes on the heels of GM ballyhooing that it was recalling 68,000 Bolts over a misborn battery.
