Gm announced the other day that it had a car that could get 250 miles per gallon which is crazy to think of! It makes you wonder if the government environmentalists didn’t have a big push on something like this. Any which way it is awesome to think of a car that can go to a range of 300 miles at 250 miles to the gallon! The Chevrolet Volt is pretty amazing if this actually comes out in 2010. The biggest question will be price?
Chevrolet Volt
The Volt has about a 40-mile range on its electric motor and battery pack. At that point, GM says, a small internal combustion engine kicks in to generate electricity for a total range of 300 miles.
The battery pack can be recharged from a standard home outlet.
If confirmed by the EPA, the Volt’s mileage would be four times that of the current champion, the Toyota Prius, and would be the first car to exceed triple-digit gas mileage, the AP says
GM says the Volt is expected to hit showrooms late in 2010.
