GM says Chevy Volt hybrid to get 230 mpg in city driving

[jorjor08]

uhmm i don't trust on a guy with an EMPTY Havana club bottle at his back! 8-)

[fearfullpeople]

So if i stop and go all the way to Vegas i'll get better mileage? That's retarded.

despite the price tag, this is a decent vehicle. as the technology gets easier to make, we'll see cheaper versions. if this car really only costs $.40 to fully charge (according to gm) you eventually will save money if you live in the city or don't have to travel over 40 miles round trip to work. all that gas money going towards your payment! this car + the solar panel on the prius gives me some optimism.

The Volt is another idiot GM idea. It will be a huge loser. They need to make an electric car for no more than $15,000 dollars so there can be one in every other garage in ten years,

how? how will you make an EV for $15k?

[jasonxgg]

what i hate about electric cars is that you have to charge the car everyday. and if u overcharge the battery i think will damage your car just like a phone when overcharging

if they make a electric car that can last 5 days good quality they'll have my money:))

What kind of cellphone do you have??

My first one was from 1992..and it could not overcharge.. lool..

Maybe its time fore you too trade in your 15kg Motorola from 1985 then looool..

What does it get after the 40miles on the battery.... what does it get when it is acting as a real hybrid using gas and electric???

Well I liked the video, but GM mainly made the car for city driving and that was the intent of the car. The miles per gallon is so high becouse on the original charge it can go for 40 miles then after that the gas does not kick in as gas, but as a generator and the generator uses gas. That powers the generator to make electricity. Thanks!
