		<description><![CDATA[Drivers of the 2011 Chevrolet Volt have three driving modes to choose from; normal, sports, and mountain mode. The mountain mode is rarely used.  It acts to cause the range extender turn on at higher charge point of the battery.  This allows a deeper battery reserve for use when travelling up [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Electric cars not only offer instantaneous torque but continue to provide linear acceleration throughout the driving velocity range. Torque and acceleration are greatest at the low-end and then flatten out as high speeds are reached. One reporter&#8217;s observation of a 67% calibration Volt prototype on the highway brought into question highway performance.  As some here may know, I recently [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I had the chance to ride in the Chevrolet Volt prototype that GM staff drove from Austin Texas to New York City on July 4th. This particular prototype, called &#8220;a golden IVer&#8221; due to its proximity to a final production car, had been built in December 2009, and had nearly 10,000 engineering miles on [...]]]></description>
