Chevy Volt by Alex Warholic

The Chevrolet Volt is a [|plug-in hybrid electric vehicle] to be produced by the [|Chevrolet] division of [|General Motors] and expected to be launched in November 2010 as a 2011 model. Its propulsion system will be based on GM's new [|Voltec] (formerly known as E-Flex) electric [|automobile platform], which differs significantly from GM's earlier [|BAS Hybrid] and [|Two-Mode Hybrid] systems. For up to the first 40 miles (64 km), the Volt is powered by electrical energy stored in its on-board [|lithium-ion batteries] which are charged by connection to an electrical power outlet. The car's 16 kW·h (8.8 kW·h usable) lithium-ion battery pack can be [|fully charged] by plugging the car into a 120-240VAC residential electrical outlet using the provided [|SAE J1772] -compliant charging cord. No external charging station will be required.
