The government, via CAFE standards, has mandated the kind of cars Detroit must build. Dump the CAFE and no loans would be needed.

Bob Lutz on record has said the Volt is such a game changer that it would make CAFE obsolete. Go Over to Motor-Trend's Website.

Look at the 09/05 story they did on the the EPA giving Chevy grief on how they will test the Volt.

It is a nightmare, tell me are they trying to kill one of the home teams or is it a government organization run amuck.....

Monday’s WSJ reported the Volt will go 40 miles on a charge, then the 4 banger gasoline motor kicks in. They also advise the battery system tends to get really hot, and in other applications, has caught fire.
