a honda insight much even less around $19K

$45,000 for a POS that will most likely burn your house down when you plug it in and electrocute you when you turn on the radio.
GM didn't engineer diddly squat, more likely they "borrowed" the technology from Honda and Toyota. Yeah and what good is a bunch of years worth of parts supply when GM will be bankrupt in less than two years and the warranty won't be worth squat?
Jeez, a fully loaded Prius is less than 25k.

My friend, EV's for GM has been in the works for many years, with many failures, and many car names. The engineering has been a GM concept for years! The Volt is still a prototype, and has been around for years. It's unfortunate that the US market waited so long to finally do what the public demanded.

The Volt was revealed at the 2007 Detroit Auto Show. A car this complex can't go from concept to production in just one year, and it's ridiculous for anyone to believe that. Even the Camaro took a few years to get to production.

You're wrong, Fenwickhockey. (You play hockey, too? Cool!!)...I'm an old timer though. Been playing for years!! Back to the story, it was scheduled for 2008 but they had a battery problem. The Hymotion lithium ion battery is available, but VERY expensive. You can convert the prius to the new battery for 10 Grand. Quite a hefty price, but that's new technology for ya. Check out, "Plug-in cars sparking a power shift" on MSN . Com. Very cool read. It has that battery in a prius.

The Volt was ALWAYS scheduled for 2010 launch...I don't know where you got your information, but it was never scheduled to be available this year.
And the plug-in prius has a pathetic electric-only range, something like 7 or 8 miles.

I hear ya there, man! Take care.

I hope you're right about Prius. Competition for the plug-in market is only better for consumers.
The Volt will be here, hopefully sooner than later.

Hey Globalpack, You will eventually be able to plug in the Prius. But, GM has been talking, and talking about the volt for the last few years. Now, it should be out in two more years. It was supposed to be out this year. Problem? Battery. Just like the GM EV in the 90's. Battery. OF course it might be the corrupt oil industry paying off GM, too!! Well, GM does need the money. Who knows what's going to happen....especially now All I have to say is: GO OBAMA!! :)
