so why pay the added price for the gas motor that will never be used? Why not have a longer range %100 electric car that will EASILY suffice for your commute. chew on that.
If everyone got on board for electric cars, there would even be charging stations at hotels and such or pit stop.
However the good thing with the Volt, is that it CAN still drive longer range, and simply require a fill up at a gas station.
I love the idea, I just think we need to completely run away from the need for oil.
