It will do that by building buzz on the streets, with new GM models popping up, for example, "in the trendy hangouts of Los Angeles this month, sometimes with
stars like Jay Leno or singer Colbie Caillat behind the wheel." Leno will take a spin in a preproduction electric-drive Chevrolet Volt next Friday. The car will later be on display at Bob's Big Boy in
Burbank, then at Century City Mall for display during the Thanksgiving shopping weekend.
"We're grateful for the second chance," says Tom Pyden, a GM manager. "We want people saying, "Oh, no, who woke these guys up?'"
