So we’re being told that the reason the production Volt has unbelievably bland styling is for aerodynamic efficiency, and the Cd is only 0.27-0.28?? My Lexus IS is 0.28!! Friggin GM, can’t do anything right, when are they going to start outsourcing more styling? They did it before with Cadillac.

The Volt tech does come from the fleet of public bussed (in larger form)that GM developed!
It would be great to get this to schools as well but keep in mind that every school has a very tight budget, they cant pay their teachers and supply the schools much less buy a ton of retro fitting equipment.
Lutz is blowing smoke so the other guys are in the dark about the real specs on Volt. All you naysayers will be eating your words in 2 years when GM and the Volt kicks every ones @ss!
It will change the world.

The Volt is a sure thing, a guaranteed hit when the first mass market No 1 rolls off the assembly line. Other manufacturer’s as Bob Lutz stated in the Charlie Rose program is working on competing against the Volt. For something outside the mainstream, take a look at the Venture Vehicles website. I’ll have a Chevy Volt and Venture One in my garage some day.

At that price, I’m interested in buying two Volts. Anyone care to pass along their waiting list number if that turns out to be used, a fellow Volt Nationer is standing by.

CHEVY VOLT: American-made, American-FUELED. Send a message to the Middle-East, not a soldier. As a retired US Air Force veteran, I despised every time we went to do no more than protect the Oil Highway and Protect the American wallet lining the pockets of Mideast Sheikdoms and Mideast Oil Barons.

Go GM!
