Gee, I wonder how many Volts they sold last month? 500? 600? As I’ve predicted before, GM will keep that turkey around until Obama exits the White House. They’re already planning a diesel version of the Chevy Cruze that will deliver 50 MPG, for less than half the price of the Volt. That model (along with Obama’s departure) should be the final nail in the Volt’s coffin. Incidentally, the diesel Cruze will go on sale next September, just two months before the anointed one faces an angry electorate.
302
Volt sales up 170% in August from July.
Sales 320 in August vs. 125 in July.
Total sales for the year: 3172
