If the car has too much drag, then the whole concept will be worthless. The original design while looking great, was not going to cut it. Perhaps with better battery technology, the original design can be brought back. Yea, well nothing is perfect. If the car has too much drag, then the whole concept will be worthless.

This falls under the category of another boring Nissan design. Please tell me this isn't the final product. As said above, Cavalier and Cimarron were dogs, and many of us are not interested. I have my solar panels at home ready to plug something into. Not sure it will be the volt any longer. The original had awesome style, and really made a statement. Not sure what the new statement is. I will have to wait to see one to make my final decision. John P.S. I'm afraid to ask what the interior now looks like..... Dear GM,

Most of the people who know the Volt and want to buy it (your main market) are on this website. I understand the need to make it have little drag to get the performance you advertised. I am an Aerospace Engineer. If you come out with a crappy looking car like the Cavalier or the not-so-different-and-boring cobalt, you will lose 2/3 of the readers of this website. since this is the way of the future, your sales are spiraling down, and this is your star child; don't make that kid retarded. At the moment , I plan on buying one. Thanks, Ryan p.s. use A123 systems. Dear GM,

You do are doing this coming out with a great concept and then flushing whatever good will and enthusiasm you may have garnered in the effort by watering down what was a desireable vehicle, and turning it into some bland, milquetoast, Prius-wannabee "world" car. Build the Volt as originally conceived and stop wussing out. If you wuss out on this, I will never purchase a GM vehicle again. Don't be boring. Be American. Be better. Grow a set. Sincerely, John Carroll Dear GM,

Don't get all worked up over a "mock up" of what it might look like. "Artist renditions" don't have a good track record. I would buy the original volt immediatly. I am expecting more than this mock up from the people that are able to produce the 2009 CTS-V, Solstice and Sky. Remember It seems that GM is putting many of their eggs in this basket. -GM has been making some nice cars lately : Caddy CTS, CTS-V, Saturn Sky, and Outlook, Pontiac Solstice and G8, the new Silverados and hopefully Camaro soon.
