Chevrolet Electric Car
The Chevrolet Volt is aimed at commuters, or 78 percent of them, who drive 40 miles or less to and from work each day. The Chevy Volt is currently a concept car, meaning it may never enter production:
Chevy Volt is meant to be unlike any previous EV (electric vehicle), thanks to its novelty rechargeable electric drive system and range-extending power source. The Volt can be configured to run on electricity, gasoline, E85 or biodiesel, with the main aim of using no gasoline in commutes of 40 miles or less. So you have at least a couple of options for the most efficient drive, made possible by General Motors' E-Flex Propulsion System. As far as features go, off-the-line torque is instantaneous, giving you responsive acceleration. In addition, you have in this four- to five-passenger sport sedan the passenger and cargo capacities you find in all the other production cars. Standard features are described by Chevrolet as driver and front passenger air bags and the StabiliTrak Stability Control System, as well as new convenience features allowing you to charge certain small electronic devices without plugging them in.
