GM’s vehicle designers are years behind European and Asian car designers. GM as not made any real advancements or technical advancements sense the late seventy’s. My advice to GM is get off your cans and get on the ball in creating not just a hale marry…(GM Volt). Not just another look-alike hybrid vehicle using designs of other makers, but a combination of green powers, solar, electric, battery powered, Fuel cell plus utilizing futuristic recyclable materials. Open up new markets, creating new jobs and new industry for Americans in our country. Time has come for general motors step into the modern age, ahead of the world car industry. Show the oil companies and our country we have the can do knowledge and the backbone to become the world leader of the green powered vehicle movement. I have been waiting for General Motor’s for to many years. A small businessman can make and all electric vehicle in his garage, that plugs-into you’re home outlet by utilize classic and antique vehicles. Why can’t General Motors create an all new vehicle for us?…”What is good for General Motors is good for America”.

cute ideas here but really, are all of you really going to wait until 2010 to get into an electric car when there are electric cars available today? We cashed in our BMW for a 100% electric ZENN and haven’t looked back. And before any of you start ragging on the great ZENN and other NEVs, you actually can drive these wonders and still Flexcar it when you want to go to the beach or whatever. But no, I still hear folks each day moan about the shortcomings of something like our ZENN in order to justify their addiction to the pump and their gasoline car. We’ve done 1300 miles as of yesterday for a total cost in electricity of $13. That’s 3 months of urban driving for the cost of a on-sale CD.

Wait for the Volt or anything else Detroit may get around to offering in 2010 or 2015 for the Polar Bears and thousands of other animal species have all the time in the world. As do we.

Or you could get a ZENN today, end 95% of your dependance upon foreign oil (the 5% for the Flexcar) and actually do something. That’s the problem with America today – we can talk but we really don’t have the guts to do the walk.

How about it America? Are we going to be first rate today or second rate until 2010??

I have to agree with Hermie, 100%!

Magnets or stickers are great but it’s hard to get a good look at something that’s doing 70 MPH. Can we expand the design to T-shirts? This gives enough room to show the official site and this site for optimal up to date info. It also gives those of us who are willing to talk up projects like this the opportunity to do so. Again, hard to do in traffic. Identify a person/face with the support, not just a car.

As for the “made in America” debate that’s raging on this thread, we need to keep something in mind. WE are pushing gm to keep the Volt under $30,000. This is how our consuption culture is killing our service based economy. It’s not just about energy or oil, or terrorism. This could be about a revival of our economy, jobs, deficeits, and a begining of hope for our children’s future. I know this is a bit broad reaching for this thread but I’m not trying to preach. I’m dreaming of seeing the advetising campaign for this vehicle include the (validated) phrase “100% Made in the U.S.A.!!!” I would gladly pay extra for my volt if this could be accomplished. US jobs, US Families, US economy. US future.

Richard H., #12 & #18:

I have to agree with you.

We have been sort of looking at Aveos and Cobalts to try to get to a smaller car to bridge over the 3 years (+?) to the Volt. Yesterday I had the sad experience of seeing the January issue of Consumer Reports. They report owner satisfaction with current cars, and how likely they are to purchase another.

Prius #1 with 92% loyalty. Corvette in the top 10 with 88%. Cobalt and Aveo in the bottom 10 with 45% + or -. Plus, as I commented last week, the mileage is really poor. Thus, I have to share your concern about the future viability of GM in the mass marketplace.

As Rashiid and others have said to often, they had better get the Volt right, or it’s game over for sure.

Tom, #34:

Absolutely right on the simplicity front.

“Keep it simple, stupid.”

“Simplicate and add lightness.”
