Cost to GM $60-$100? I don't see how.
Cost to consumer an extra hundred, I can see that.

That would be GM for sure.
The VW beetle had active cooling via a little bi-metallic bellows that would close flaps on the fan shroud when the engine was cool and open them when hot. This would allow quicker warmups and lower fan load on the engine while warming up. Not quite the same idea but if they could do it on the low cost Beetle in 1970...
At GM, we recycle everything, including old ideas... and take the credit... and charge you extra.
Actually it will be quite expensive to develop this ground breaking new tehnology... They have to spend a lot of time designing it to break right after the warranty expires.
