Those 1,300 Employees your Government Motors just laid off, probably don't feel as euphoric as you do. Maybe they should borrow some of your meds?

You idiot dittoheads can take a lot of the credit. Your car experts are Rush, Beck and Sean- "Un-American" (Time) liars.The hard core dittoheads would never touch one, nor about another 30% "collateral damaged"- great job, a-holes!

Wait until the new batteries that's half the price and has 3 times the density of power comes out within the next few years. Then electrical cars become economical or at least start to become so.

Envia Claims ‘Breakthrough’ in Lithium-Ion Battery Cost and Energy Density

Envia Claims 'Breakthrough' in Lithium-Ion Battery Cost and Energy Density - NYTimes.com

Envia Systems, a battery maker based in California, announced on Monday what it called a “major breakthrough” in lithium-ion cell technology that would result in a significant increase in the energy density — and a sharp reduction in the cost — of lithium-ion battery packs. Envia is financed by the Energy Department and G.M. Ventures, the venture-capital arm of General Motors, as well as other investors.

Envia SystemsMr. Kapadia.

“We will be able to make smaller automotive packs that are also less heavy and much cheaper,” Atul Kapadia, chairman and chief executive of Envia, said in a telephone interview. “The cost of cells will be less than half — perhaps 45 percent — of cells today, and the energy density will be almost three times greater than conventional automotive cells.”

Mr. Kapadia continued: “What we have are not demonstrations, not experiments, but actual products. We could be in automotive production in a year and a half.”

95% of Volt owners love them, but half the country at least thinks they're fire traps. Total BS, like your politics...

Possibly and hopefully, but they're FINE NOW and the industry is learning like crazy and competitive globally because of gov't stimulus. Unlike wind energy whose technology is all foreign, thanks to W. Booosh and the Pubmorons...

The volt has a price tag of around 40.000 dollars I don't know about everyone else but that is way out of my price range.

I'm also a car guy who doesn't get my info from RW a-holes. All the big 3 are making the best cars ever, including the Volt. Looking forward to the new Dodge Dart- which turns out to be a new-bodied Alfa Romeo Giuletta. And even ALFA and Fiat make good cars now! Punks....
