We just finished reading the full summary of UAW’s contract with GM (click here) and guess what; UAW included (by mistake?) GM’s future product portfolio through 2013!!! What a #ucking booboo! The list gives us an unprecedented view of specific product commitments in 16 assembly plants across the USA. As you might have guessed, GM isn't at all happy with UAW as this information is considered highly confidential for apparent competitive reasons. We’ve included the whole list for your gratification right after the jump (click the title or below), but here are a few goodies to get you started:
- Corvette and Cadillac XLR replacements due in 2012
- Global Delta Volt beginning in 2010
- Global Delta MPV7 beginning in 2009
- Cadillac CTS Wagon to be introduced in 2009
- Cadillac CTS Coupe coming in 2009
- Hummer H3T Pick Up to be introduced shortly
- Hummer H3 and H3T replacement beginning in 2011
- Two midsize / large rear-wheel-drive cars based on the Zeta platform (Camaro) to be introduced in 2011
- Chevrolet to produce large four-door notchback in 2010
