Would love it if that could be added to Lyle's podcast feed.  I am a subscriber of that.  Thank you.  :-) #24 Nasaman

The consesus appears to be GM is still with 30-80%. <a href="http://www.thejump.net/" rel="nofollow"><em>omegaman66</em></a>  touches on the issue that I was hoping to discuss with the engineers. Are they testing outside of the 30-80% cycle, which I assume they must be? Do they have plans to allow the driver to overide the cycle limits? Do they have an idea yet what effects certain deviations from the 80-30 cycle will produce? Obviously battery life is an issue and performance could be an issue on the max discharge limit.

If you use 110/220 in conversation, you are giving away your age.  Sounds like the Volt is very near a certainty. Hope I don't have to steal one to get one. GM please take some money. Would love to see info on the locked down design. Work on'em Lyle. Nominal voltage designation in the USA is 120/240 VAC. If you use 110/220 in conversation, you are giving away your age.

SOC range = 30 to 80%. If I was reading Bob right I wouldn't be at all surprised with 60 AER in Volt Ver 1.0  Just a subtle guess (but I got $2 that says I'm right. They will hold some positive info secret to release here and there to stoke flagging interest or offset bad news. Bob DID say "more like 50 AER initially" and 40 at the end of the battery’s life.
