SUV interest increasing. So, where are GM's hybrid SUVs?
The Saturn Vue hybrid is just too mild for my tastesAccording to Cars.com, there is an uptick in consumer interest for SUVs. Ironically, however, fuel efficiency is more important than safety for consumers interested in purchasing a new vehicle, but the most important point is price, notes the same study. Consequently, I wonder is fuel efficiency less important for those interested in an SUV compared to other vehicles?
It seems that must be the case.
Obviously, it appears SUV fans are a die hard bunch, still they must also have fuel efficiency concerns. So, why isn't GM or Chrysler trying to attract any of these die hards with their dual mode hybrid powertrain?
Finish, Where are GM's hybrid SUVs?

(Rest of Story)
Again I ask, where is the Yukon hybrid or the Escalade hybrid? The Yukon hybrid has been making the rounds at all the auto shows, so why isn't it showing up at all the GM dealerships?
What kind of game is GM playing? Isn't it important for GM to demonstrate that it can compete with the Ford Escape hybrid and the Toyota Highlander hybrid? Is there a problem with the dual mode hybrid powertrain? Is the dual mode hybrid powertrain too expensive? Is this the kind of foot-dragging America can expect with the Chevy Volt electric hybrid?
Just a few things that make me wanna holler, c'mon GM!
