I gotta ask, what the hell is going on at General Motors (GM) right now? Did they find John DeLorean's hidden stash of cocaine? Are they going through a mid-life crisis? Are they bored with making 1,000 horsepower Corvettes? It may sound odd that RideApart is covering the brand best known for its trucks and the aforementioned Corvette, and it is. But over the last week, not only have we been made aware of an electric motorcycle the brand's patented, but now it's supposedly working on a UTV, too.
The realization comes from UTV Driver, which discovered the patent earlier this week, and shows something that couldn't be anything else but a side-by-side. And the design language feels both futuristic and very much in the same go-fast vein as Polaris, Can-Am, Kawasaki, and Honda's offerings.
I mean, just look at the patent drawings and try to say it's anything but that. And, like the motorcycle patent, it looks to be electric. Well, apart from what appears to be an exhaust port on the back, though my eyes could be deceiving me on that particular portion.
