I wonder how many people are going to cancel their subscriptions after this. What a farce.

This is truly amazing. I actually laughed when I saw the title.
It is clearly a “Jump the Shark” moment for the magazine.

The Volt can run up to 50 miles in pure electric mode And it weighs over 3,000 lbs., what an awesome, well thought out piece of..........something.

For most of the existence of the Ford Mustang*, only one model had won the "Car of the Year"...the 1974 model (widely regarded as the worst and least collectible model of all.)
*I believe one of the later models has also won. (I could look it up, but mehh.)

They are putting this piece of supreme idiocy all over the place hoping it will take of- it won’t - only corporate dumbells like GE will buy them u8ntil their stockholders show them the door.
Looks like the union member better line up and buy them before they are out of work

Can’t wait to drive one.
My company bought one, if only to tear the thing apart upon receipt.
We were asked to bid on the electric motor, but declined because GM wouldn’t guarantee the required payback in unit sales. Money loser for GM and its American “investors”.

I see they also gave the Chrysler K-Car as the car of the year in 1981, so they’re not exactly geniuses in handing out awards to deserving cars.

I used to read MT, and Car+Driver.
I always got the feeling that MT was just an advertising branch of AUTO Manufacturing Industry.

“Motor Trend says the Volt has some of the most advanced engineering ever seen in an American car.”
Well Gee. I guess if an amount of “advanced technology” is the lead criteria for a car, and not the cost, then maybe we should all have space shuttle level “advanced technology” in our cars, and let Obama subsidize ALL our auto purchases. /sarc
