Chevorlet Volt | GM Newest Hybrid Car
Posted by Mr.Green under: GM Hybrid Cars .
The Chevrolet Volt project was started in 2006 after hearing about the Tesla Roadster, a high-performance electric sports car.
A Detroit based news crew was able to take a sneak peak at the new Chevrolet Volt at General Motors design studio.
The Chevy Volt is designed to run strictly on electricity from the batteries up to 40 miles. The Chevrolet Volt also has a gas motor but it purpose to recharge the batteries of the Volt. This combination increases the range of the Volt to 640 miles on the highway.
General Motors plans to release the Chevrolet Volt into market in 2010 with a price tag around $30,000 and plans to release over 60,000 cars for that year alone.
This could be the next best hybrid car available, so keep an eye on this hybrid!
