Seriously, GM is serious about the Chevy Volt

No. Seriously. GM will build the Volt

The Chevy Volt plug-in hybrid is a fantastic concept vehicle. Still, it is 3 years away from reality according to GM, and even then, it will be produced in limited numbers according to GM via AutoWeek.

While America waits for this Toyota Prius-fighter, Toyota will have sold more than a million Prii, possibly several million. By the time the Volt hits the streets, Toyota will also be using lithium-ion batteries. In fact, by the time the first Volt is sold, Toyota might have already sold more than a million lithium-powered hybrid cars. And, while GM brags about the plug-in potential of the Volt, there is every reason to believe that Toyota will also offer a plug-in option for its hybrids.

I'm certainly not trying to diminish GM's hybrid efforts, and I'm extremely glad that GM is moving forward with the Volt, but I get it already. GM is serious about producing the Volt.
