GM is running a fleet of about 80 pre-production Volts, are producing 10 a week now, which are meeting initial targets. They are undergoing rigorous tests, and they're getting very positive results.

And actual production for the consumer will start in November of 2010. Then will hit full scale mass production in 2011, and then ramp that even more in 2012.

Price hasn't been decided yet, somewhere in the vicinity of $40,000, hopefully a little less. on the assumption they charge $40,000, minus the $7,500 from the federal government means the car would cost around $32,500 which is not much more than a normal medium-sized car.

Seats must be covered in Plastics. DashBoard, Steering Wheel, Door Panels, Floor Mats, Rear View Mirror, Etc must be all covered in Plastics. Technology and engineering that's the best for that particular vehicle (tends to be universal) is applied throughout the line-up.

No worries people, the gas age is soon gonna end. I have high faith in these Electric Cars, just give the manufacturers about 4 years or more after they release them and they will make them better. :) and they will be a hell of a lot cheaper then gas :P

Looks like they got their sharpest employees working this thing. It's their one and only hope--GM is dust.
