I love the idea of GM making such a cool car, but I think the Prius is much better looking than this concept car. And the sales of the prius are strong. I dont know why the square corner/ new caddy version look for gm. In my opinion, think rounded and smooth. I want to love GM and make my next car a gm hybrid or a volt, but I dont like these square lines.

BTW – if you want a cool electric car that gets 240+ miles per charge check out Tesla Motors Roadster (http://www.teslamotors.com/). Pricey, but very cool. Too bad a company with the resources to launch such a product without the need to pass on all R&D up front didn’t do it. Might have been able to price it like … ohhhhh, say, a Corvette.

Yup, they did it again. GM is killing the cool concept car and replacing it with a hohummer. How did we get from the “sleek muscular” Volt concept to the Cobalt-with-a-battery Volt production version?!? Why does GM always do this? Is it some weird corporate death wish or something? Yes, looks do matter. It’s called “appeal”. And the new Volt production version ain’t got it. Talk about a buzzkill. Oh well, I’ve come to expect it from GM. Now, where did I put that Toyota brochure?

you did screw up. the new look is nothing like the concept. make a car for those of us (me) that want a car for the looks and still gets great milage. bring the concept back! if you bring it back by 2010, i’ll buy it.

I was ready to buy a new volt when it comes out because of its awsome looks. But after seeing the production model, no thanks, you really screwed up GM. It looks like any other 4 seat sedan on the road. You had a winner, but not now.
