@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.
Any prospects for the Chevy Volt went down the toilet when GM scuttled the whole program.
(My humble prediction)
Added:
Updates: The Chevy Volt estimated price has climbed up to over $40,000, leaving it priced out of reach of many consumers and essentually negating any fuel cost savings. Tony Posawatz, Vehicle Line Director for GM’s Chevy Volt, "The two major factors holding back the Volt’s release are extensive testing requirements and lithium ion battery technology."
Remember the EV1?
I highly recommend buying or going to your library and renting "Who Killed the Electric Car?"
