The engine is used as a generator not to drive the wheels of the Volt.

So it is charging the batteries to propel the car forward not to store energy for futre use.

Hard to believe? Isn’t GM engineering great? Ha ha ha.

GM is on the way back bitches!

My guess is it is Opel’s technology. The white collar and non union workers at GM worked like dogs to save the company. The UAW are scum.
