I will be interested to see the specifics on the volt. But it all depends on the price. And 2010 is a long time away.

Also wanted to add Reuters came up with a pretty good article with accurate points on this one.

Hopefully, they will be able to take some sales from the Prius, Camry Hybrids and Civic Hybrids etc, out on the market today.

GM needs to learn how to make a normal mainstream car everyone likes. I love my GMs, but they are not for the mainstream markets like midsize sedans and SUVs. Malibu is too small, I am 6'3" and I could not drive it, even after I moved the steering wheel and seats out to the max. Dont get me started on TrailBlazer, I've been waiting for a redesign for a long time.

Yes I’m 6’2” and really the Malibu is just a tad too small for me. I do like the styling though. Stay tuned for more.
