Great to hear the VOLT is still on track…. great to hear updates…
It’s amusing to hear the solar cells on the roof comments… if you cover the whole roof with solar cells .. you could ..maybe… play the radio.
Very little electricity can be produced with solar cells on roofs of cars.

Wasn’t the Zoyte made by the guy that went to jail for fraud? Something about not having a real product…..

Willie: “GM killed the electric car, they should have inproved it. The Zoyte is out and comming soon. I don’t care if it is US,China,Mexico or what ever made. I just want to stop paying for gas. Oil companies should hand over those,HUGE, profits to uncle sam to help bring the US debt down.”

You need to educate yourself instead of watching movies. The electric car died because the technology needed REPLACEMENT of the battery every 30K miles at a cost of near $10K. Not realistic.
‘
As for Zoyte, I’ll NEVER buy something from China when the profits go toward targeting the United States. On the back end, China itself owns the car company, and thus the profits.

Finally, for the oil companies, they realize a 7-8% profit margin. Much lower than most industries. I don’t see you requiring Wal-Mart or Microsoft to give more of their profits. AND, Uncle Sam takes 5-6X the amount the oil companies make in taxes. NO OTHER BUSINESS is taxed as high as the oil industry. Keep pushing them and it won’t be worth their while to drill nor will stock holders stay. Then you’ll have chased ANOTHER industry from this country.
