Volt would be a big change, since it is not a straight electric. It is a hybrid using the gasoline engine.

Except for some accessory connections to the IC Engine to the wheels that are not necessary, the engine is used to run a generator that makes electricity. Even when running on petrol, the electric motors are stil the main force moving the car, and could be the only force with little modification.
