#4 ...FWIW, the Big 3 are suddenly re-examining their headlong rush to electrification - to give an example, Ford is losing 30K per car on their Mach E SUV. Not that they're selling that many in the first place. The F-150E Lightning is a great pick-up truck...for people who don't need a pick-up truck or need one with limited range.

Stellantis (what was once Chrysler, many many years ago) made a big deal of ending ICE production this year, and is now seriously hedging on that.

GM had the good fortune (given some of their other decisions, I can't say 'sense') to have a couple of EVs already in production, and the only new one I know they have coming out is a seriously bespoke Caddy.
