Alex is the founder of GM Authority and its parent company, Motrolix. He currently serves as Executive Editor for the network.
An automotive enthusiast at heart, Alex has a strong passion for anything on wheels. He founded GM Authority in 2009 – just as General Motors was going through a highly-publicized bankruptcy – after noticing a significant amount of misinformation about the automaker, its products, and business strategies in the media.
Under Luft’s leadership, GM Authority has become the standard in independent General Motors news coverage and analysis, uniting GM enthusiasts the world over and serving as the leading GM news source and opinion leader on matters related to the automaker.
Prior to assuming his current role at Motrolix, Luft worked at various positions at General Motors. Prior to that, he headed marketing at a leading dealer group in Colorado.
Luft is Bilingual in English and Russian as well as fluent in Spanish and Portuguese. He holds two Bachelor of Science degrees in Marketing and in Management from Florida Atlantic University.
When not working, Alex is likely seeking out twisty mountain roads in his Cadillac ATS Corvette C7 Grand Sport, playing ice hockey, biking, or reading.
