Jeep Unveils the Gladiator Pickup and More This Week in Cars

This truck and SUV thing won't let up, will it? This week General Motors announced it would lay off about 14,000 employees, a mix of white collar and factory workers, and it seems the strategy has a lot to do with the automaker's plans to get out of cars. Instead, it will pour money into electric and autonomous vehicle development. And while it waits for those technologies to become really real: more trucks and SUVs! They were all over this weeks LA Auto Show, too, in the form of Jeep's new pickup, Land Rover's new Evoque, and Rivian Automotive's all-electric truck.
