Chevy Volt Shown at GM 100 Anniversary


General Motors brought out the production version of the Chevy Volt. The production version is more sleek and aerodynamic than the concept version. After several hours of charging at home electrical outlet, it will be able to drive for 40 miles on electricity only. The electrical motor will produce about 150 horsepower. GM expects the car will use less electricity than a refrigerator over a year of use. It will cost about 2 cents a mile to drive the Volt using electricity. When the engine turns on to recharge the batteries, it will cost 12 cents a mile to drive. The Chevy Volt will go on sale in 2010.
