GM May Have 60,000 Volt Electric Cars Out In 2011
Insiders at GM have revealed that the auto-maker may be planning to have over 60,000 of their Volt electric cars on the road within one year of launching in 2010. GM product chief Bob Lutz said he plans to sell the first Volt by late 2010, and expects to have prototypes ready for testing early next year. Insiders claim that production is set to produce 60,000 vehicles for the official launch, however GM spokesman Scott Fosgard declined to comment on the plans. ``If they {GM} were able to get 30,000 to 60,000 on the road in a year, it would be a huge leap in technology,'' claims Brett Smith, an alternative-fuel analyst in Ann Arbor, Michigan. ``It will be difficult, though, because there are so many barriers to making this happen.''
