Speaking for Canada (since Canadians are pretty much excluded from this contest), there’s more reason to drive a Volt than the US and more reason again in Europe.
You want to know why ? Runaway Health Care costs. They tax the heck out of gasoline up here to pay for it.
Electricity is relatively cheap but gas is over $4 a gallon up here. (that’s taking exchange and converting litres etc into US gallons.)
Our lineups to get routine surgeries are as long as ever and don’t expect to get timely operations for tumor removals. So be knowledgable when you consider Obama care.
The Volt is one of the few ways to avoid excessive government taxation. It’s even worse in Europe.

Michael: So the question remains, will the Volt be back in Austin May 14-16, 2010 at the Statesman Auto Show?Will there be test drives then?

Yes, the Volt will be back in Austin May 14th through 16th at the Convention Center sponsored by the Austin Area Dealer's Association. I think it will be inside the convention center only, so, I don't believe test drives will be available at that time.
