A step in the right direction.but some other company will definetly beat out this car shortly after launch im waiting to see how this is going to pan out. I want at least 60 ,miles for a charge but still the car is sounding reasonable right now.The future is bright for chevy for awhile anyway.

might as well stay with the best option, Prius, then. I can’t see any reason to justify 20K extra for a car to use electricity, and have GMs “great” reliability….yay for Toyota!

If your commute is 40 miles or under, you are not spending any money on gas. you might spend a max of 2.50 to charge your battery every night. at that rate i dont think too many people will be worried that there car will depreciate by 10K the next year. after 5 yrs or so of the volt, you will have saved so much money you can get that 30K car that will now be 15K and not loose an hr of sleep over it.

I believe ALL cars need a makeover! GM is Finally on it’s way with new Volt. What I don’t get, how can ANY car company keep over pricing these new cars..especially when they are pricing the general public right out of one. Why don’t they go sell them for around $20,000 and sell a whole lot more! In the long run, I think that “long run” = more selling and more profits for GM. I cannot afford a $40,000 new car and I’m not the only one.
Why over price and keep on getting people who end up NOT paying! Times are bad and people can’t pay for what they’ve already got. But the ones who can buy, need a better deal than $30-$40,000. Thats why GM got into the finacial shape it is in now and retirees’s spouses are losing some of the health benefits or are being charged more for their prescription drug coverage.
C’mom GM…and ALL car companies..man up and do what’s right and affordable and people will buy what your selling!
And, why should all these ‘green’ cars be soooo expensive.. I know things costs BUT shouldn’t the Government (epa) include enough incentives to help cover most of the cost to build these cars? Shouldn’t that be included in the bail-out money?

I just wanna say that i think this new car will help the economy out very much but what I don’t get is that they have had a car sitting in a lab done that the whole car only runs on water. What i am saying is that if they are trying to save on fuel why not make copies of the “water car” and start selling that. I just don’t get the US Government’s thinking anymore.
