An eagle-eyed reader in West Virginia spotted a coven of carefully disguised GM test vehicles in a parking lot and used an image-capture device, cunningly integrated into a portable radio-telephone, to take these pictures, which were then sent to us via electromagnetic-post.

Maybe this is a Bolt redesign? Or maybe just a Bolt-based mule for something else? A compact crossover EV seems like a pretty safe bet at the moment, so that would not surprise me one bit.

Clearly, I’m guessing. But it looks like GM is up to something. I bet it’ll be a new Pontiac EV. Probably a .

What 2020 Would Look Like If Automakers Had Seriously Invested In Hydrogen
As we head into 2020, the number of hydrogen cars available to the public is still dreadfully low.
