2011 The Chevrolet Volt

In late fall of 2010, General Motors will be launching the Chevy Volt. The Volt is unique as it offers the environmental benefits of a standard electric car, without the limited range. Volts can travel up to 40 miles on electric power alone, before a gasoline engine kicks in to help recharge its batteries. Will the Chevrolet Volt revolutionize the automotive industry, or will it help fill a small niche market of green cars alongside other plug ins and hybrids?

General Motors has finally delivered on their promise of the Chevrolet Volt and is ready to change a homeowner's relationship to their garage door. The cost has been announced and though it's higher for that initial batch of vehicles, any economist will agree that, with steady proven demand, a supply is going to be ramped up to drive down price. The popularity of the Toyota Prius and Ford Fusion has shown that Americans want much more power efficient vehicles. Jay Leno may not require a vehicle that merely gets an individual efficiently from point A to point B, but any parent will point out that's their primary occupation.
