Chevy Volt Unveiled!
The 2011 Chevy Volt comes out of hiding
There have been rumors... there have been leaked photo's... but now the real stuff is here.
The 2011 Chevy Volt was unveiled on Tuesday morning, and there are some really nice photo's of it this time around. The exterior is more aerodynamic, and the interior is very high tech - two 7" LCD's replace the console analog displays, and touch buttons control most environmental and other systems - however the white plastic touch column does not look that great.
What I find interesting about the Volt is that it supposedly will run for 40 miles off a full charge - and can recharge from any 120V outlet, 240V outlet, or the on-board 1.4L 4-cylinder flexible fuel motor.

Toyota and Honda also have very promising electric car programs in the pipes so I'm not sure if the Volt has what it takes to save GM.
Damn!!! Australia needs economic globalisation or interconnectedness.
