Is the Chevy Volt losing its spark with consumers?
from the SeattleTimes.com, August 20, 2011
Lovely. After reading the headline for this article you may think to yourself, “Gee, what’s wrong with the Chevrolet Volt?” and the answer is simple. Nothing. It’s what they said it would be and it costs as much as they said t would and it does what they said it would. “They” being Chevrolet and General Motors. And all other sentient beings on the planet.
So, why is it losing it’s spark? Because it has entered the real world and reality has crept up on those who thought it was going to cure cancer and the common cold. Just what is this real world issue that has leapt out of the shadows and yelled, “Boo!”
The price.
It hasn’t changed.
The tax credit is still just that, a tax credit, not a discount at the time of sale.
Oh, and by the way, the Nissan Leaf is still only electric.
In case you had forgotten.
The article said so.
