GM has said it plans to sell only electric passenger vehicles worldwide by 2035.
I’m betting that doesn’t happen. How do you not at least keep a Duramax? Farmers, construction workers, etc can’t use an electric pickup

Yeah, all electric seems like a problem for them. The batteries will have to be huge to satisfy people that need those vehicles for pulling things. It's a shame that no diesel or gas electric drive trains have been tried for pickups (that I know of). It would be awesome to have an electric motor driving every wheel powered by a gas or diesel turbine.

GM is careful to exclude pickup trucks from their EV-only push. They will make EV pickups, but they are not abandoning ICE trucks.
In fact they just recently announced the release plans of the next generation small block V8 that will be used well into the 2030s.
