"General Motors' biggest hope for a revival promises to rewrite motoring history books. Initial figures emanating from the EPA claim that the Chevrolet Volt will achieve city fuel economy of at least 230mpg." ~ General Motors

"The Chevrolet Volt extended-range electric vehicle is expected to achieve city fuel economy of at least 230 miles per gallon, based on development testing using a draft EPA federal fuel economy methodology for labeling for plug-in electric vehicles.


The Volt, which is scheduled to start production in late 2010 as a 2011 model, is expected to travel up to 40 miles on electricity from a single battery charge and be able to extend its overall range to more than 300 miles with its flex fuel-powered engine-generator.


"From the data we've seen, many Chevy Volt drivers may be able to be in pure electric mode on a daily basis without having to use any gas," said GM Chief Executive Officer Fritz Henderson. "EPA labels are a yardstick for customers to compare the fuel efficiency of vehicles. So, a vehicle like the Volt that achieves a composite triple-digit fuel economy is a game-changer."" ~ GM Media Online. Read complete release at General Motors Media Online.

The new 911 Turbo proves that this principle is more powerful, efficient and desirable than ever before." ~ Porsche
