Chevy Volt Takes Tinseltown by Storm

[ScottOScottOScottO]

An amazing car that really puts Toyota to shame...Did everyone see after Toyota made fun of GM and said the Volt would never work, THEY are now trying to offer a plug-in like the Volt?!?!?! And one year late and terrible mileage compared to the Volt.

Wow, Chevy you surprised me...You will have the most efficient car in the world...

another example of how marketing n lobby makes a mockery of common sense.

Moron GM management with moronic Volt.

-continued Meaning this car which they tried so hard to make eco-friendly is more harmful then existing cars. So whats the point of this car? there are cars that can do better that isn't allowed in the US since they would bankrupt the American car companies.

Old railroad diesel trains had generators recharged by the diesel engine. So this really isn't that impressive. And having a car travel 340 miles with the generator and batteries is pointless. the VW lupo 3L does 700.54 miles per tank(78MPG with a 8.91 gallon tank), the VW Scirocco does 65 mpg with a 14.5gallon tank(812.5 miles per tank). And the VW polo does 60 mpg with a 11.28 gallon tank(676.81 miles per tank).

So why did VW not think if it first, or anyone do it before, if it isn't that impressive?

Chevy wins: 230 mpg...deal with it.

[FIyingPengwin]

The car is being designed to drive at least 40 miles on pure electricity stored in the battery from overnight home charging. After that the gas engine will kick in and allow the car to be driven up to 400 miles on a full tank (~8 gallons) of gas. So even if it is your so called "230 mpg" its worthless if if gets less mileage than other cars. do your research

[jpuph]

leave it to chevy

[babarshaikhx]

plenty of japnese , korean, euro cars that run on petrol that cost less than this and are cheaper to run! and are much more environment friendly than this. why would anyone buy an electric car is beyond me!
