FCMacbeth Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Looks modern enough to fit in the future. Too bad it's already been bogged down by gradients. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS85 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Objectively poor new design. GM's simple and strong identity appealed to many and now it's just another bland, already-dated design that divides instead of welds generations, and inevitably will get gutted in a few years.

It's not like it appears on actual cars. I prefer the "tougher" current logo, but this does make sense. While i dont recall it appearing on the exterior on any car, it certainly was featured on parts and labels on the interior. For NASCAR fans, it was predominantly featured on the hood and side of Dale Earnhardt's black #3 car as part of the GM Goodwrench sponsorship.

tBBP Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 What is with the recent proliferation of lowercase letters used as primary initials lately? It might just be me, but capital letters strike me as "bolder, stronger", while outside of a very few certain instances, lowercase letters just come across as, well, "weaker", I guess. And for a corporation called GENERAL Motors, that's just not working at all. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeofChutney Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 ^I don't get the popularity of lowercase logos. Seems very 90s. This redesign makes it look like the brief was "the current look is too stark, we wan't a more cutesy appearance". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claystation360 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 So was this the logo General Motors had planned for after their Chapter 11 reorganization? I mean its screams like it. #DTWD #GoJaguars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jc... Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 After the bailout they came and removed the GM logo from the signs out in front of the dealership. So now they just have Chevrolet and Buick logos. No mention of GM anywhere. Also, they just introduced new packaging for parts. Apparently not a lot of communication between GMCCA (Parts) and the marketing department, all the new packaging is obsolete with the old logo. Doesn't surprise me really. I've worked at a GM dealer for almost 23 years. And so many things that happen don't make sense and make you wonder who is really in charge? We get calls from the GM Customer Service division asking us, why there is a delay in getting parts. And the answer is, why the hell are you asking us? You should be the ones telling us why there is a delay. Lots of situations like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCarp1231 Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 I can personally confirm the GM box was a thing. I just noticed yesterday that it’s present on my 09 Pontiac G5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
