I'm sure a lot of people would buy it, and it would be a way to put a positive spin on all their negative press from "Who Killed The Electric Car". Steven B Said:

I just found it today, moreover I said that an Opel-Volt Volt is hoped to be on sale in Western Europe by the end of 2010. Here is the link to their website (in german) with a transcript of the interview : http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/news/wirtschaft_-_handel/hxcms_article_505519_14140.hbs My wife and myself drive two Opels that will be five and six years old in the end of 2010. I 'll chahge them for for two Opel-Volts. Thanks again In reply to Matt986,

I'm scheduled to finish payment of my current car in May of 2011 and am planning on my next car being a Volt. But when reading the article, the thing that really stood out to me was the mention of two more E-flex models to be presented soon, a Sequel E-flex variant, and another E-flex vehicle with a large battery and a 3-liter range-extender! What on Earth could this be??? That'll have to be massive, it seems. Is it for an E-flex Tahoe or Hummer or something? Because it seems that the rule for the size of an engine for a range-extender is about half to a third the size of the engine for a comparable ICE, so that translates into what be used in a large V8. Does anybody know? I read the article and am excited about the progress of the project. I’m scheduled to finish payment of my current car in May of 2011 and am planning on my next car being a Volt.

Opel does sell in Europe, if I'm not mistaken. ;) Anyway, it's good news to hear assuring things like in this article. The Volt will be a game changer!

It's the first time that we read in an interview that GM intends to sell the Volt overseas from the US. Thanks again Lyle to keep us informed at such a short time notice.
