How would you charge the Chevy Volt if you live in an apartment complex?

July 26th, 2010 by Joe 1 comment »

Would you just run a wire from your apartment (which could be on the second or third floor) ALL the way down to you car? Just sleep at night and hope no one would unplug it? Or what if you have to park your car in an underground parking lot (in some apartment complexes, you have to park your car UNDER the complex itself). How would you run the wire?

How would you charge the Chevy Volt if you don't have a house?

July 20th, 2010 by Joe 1 comment »

If you live in a two story apartment complex, how would you plug your car to recharge it? Or what if you have to park your car under the apartment complex? Hotels?

I know you can run a wire from your house to your car that’s parked in the garage, but how about every other person not living in a house?

what is the music in the Chevy Volt Commercial?

July 15th, 2010 by Joe 1 comment »

It’s the instrumental music behind the commercial where the field becomes a gas station that modernizes, becomes derelict and then it becomes a field again.

Would you consider purchasing a Chevy Volt when it becomes available in the 2011 model year?

July 10th, 2010 by Joe 1 comment »

This is an all-electric car with a range of 40 miles-per-charge, and for longer trips, a small internal combustion engine recharges the batteries as you drive.

Can you provide a link to an article or website describing developments we will see in the electric car in the future? What new models are coming out? What improvements are being made? Please provide a reference. Thanks so much.

And does Chevy have any plans of actually putting a full electric car on the market any time soon?

Does the prospects of the Chevy Volt revitalize your confidence in GM?

June 20th, 2010 by Joe 1 comment »

.
@sleepy: how green electric cars are depends on when the charging is done. Besides, this is more about brand confidence than anything. Lately, I can only trust myself with a Toyota/Honda.

@LeAnne: what do you mean the program has been scuttled? Part of the reason why I am asking about the Volt is that I would like to learn more about the vehicle.

How does the Chevy Volt work? If you have to plug it in isn’t it still being fueled by carbon fuels (coal) ?

June 6th, 2010 by Joe 1 comment »

Assuming your power grid is powered by a coal fired power plant. Is the overall carbon footprint still significantly greater? Would the 80 cents per mile in gasoline be offset by a noticeably higher utility bill at home or do you still end up way ahead?
Sorry, not 80 cents per mile, they are saying that with the Volt it’d be like driving a conventional car but paying 80 cents per gallon.
