This Volt thing is BS this technology has been available for many years adn is probably already obsolete.

Comment by Steve Lee on February 4, 2010 at 10:25am: Actually, the Volt chassis is set-up to have the "Fuel Cell" that GM has developed installed in the future when enough hydrogen refueling stations are built in the US (there are four now in California) or perhaps even use natural gas which is increasing in supply from old oil wells in our country.

That would be a true "Electric Car" that would not need overnight recharging.

Comment by fireguy on February 4, 2010 at 1:03am: No, the Volt will only run off of wind generated electricity piped through the smart ass grid. If you get energy from coal, nuke, natural gas or hydroelectric the Volt will call Obama's Energy Czar on the ONStar system and SWAT teams will be immediatly dispatched to your GPS coordinates to deal with your anti-green terrorist tendencies.

Have a great day.

Comment by youhavetoforgiveme on February 3, 2010 at 11:12pm: Meah...I'm happy to see jobs in Detroit (or anywhere else in the US)....but what kind of stupid joke is this? Plug in cars are fueled by wall current or some such thing-- which is often powered by a COAL or NUCLEAR power plant-- DUH!!!
