Something wrong here:

I though the European countries had a different electrical current than the USA and that is why seasoned travelers take ‘convertors’ with them when they travel.

Now we are sending Chevy Volts to Vienna & installing a $108,000 ‘charging station’ to service the cars?

How were these Volts different than the ones being sold in America?

You cannot just ‘pulug something in’ that doesn’t have the same system.

I am totally confused.

The Regime is sending to most embassies around the industrialized world along with the equipment necessary to convert the electrical current. In fact, if not for government purchases of volts the sales would not amount to .0001% of cars sold by GM.

They found that out after they got the Volts, hence the $108+K charging station.
