May 2oth GM’s Vice Chairman Bob Lutz announced that the Volt will be available for sale and also as a lease. Some feared that it would be a lease only option but obviously we are getting the best of both worlds here and you can choose what you want to do.
Still no price has been set on the Volt as of yet, even though we were told a price would be announced in May.
As you may already know Nissan has their price and even a waiting list for their newest EV Leaf, but GM has said that it’s Volt is not in the same
category as the Leaf and thus the EV’s price tags aren’t going to be in the same boat. “I (am) excited about other EV entries joining us in the vehicle electrification movement,” said GM’s Volt strategic marking manger John Hughes. ”It will take different types of EV’s at different price points to serve the varied needs of consumers just as there are SUV’s at various sizes and price points.”
So hopefully in the next month or so we will see a price for the Chevy Volt and possibly a waiting list??? Only time will tell…
