Volt to come up in 2010
The famed project of plug-in hybrid Chevrolet Volt by General Motors Corporation is progressing rapidly. The company sowed off the progress on the car to a select audience of journalist and analysts.
The concept of Volt involves a 40 mile run powered by 400 pound T-shaped lithium-ion battery pack. This will be the first attempt when lithium ion batteries, now used widely in all electronic goods, will be used to run a car. It is designed to be used in any weather condition. Volt will leapfrog from the Toyota Prius hybrid design.
Chevrolet Volt was supposed to participate in the 2008 Auto Expo in New Delhi. However, the car failed to make it to subsequent auto shows, across the world. The company is now planning to launch the car in 2010.

I though Volt was going to appear at the 9th Auto Expo. But it has been delayed. Now with this blog i learn that it is still under development. I hope that General Motors comes up with something stunning after so much research. I hope it touches the 2010 mark at least. The world is desperately searching for fuel alternatives.
It is wonderful to see the different kinds of experiment car makers do.Now we are going to have a car run on lithium-ion battery pack? wow wonder how is it going to make a difference.
