Buyers from three groups will buy volts:
1 Government agencies
2. Companies who will get a pr benefit with their clients.
3 Rich people who don’t care if it works or not for the money. It’s cool, it’s rare, They’ll probably never drive it out of the neighborhood since they’ve got six other cars for that, and it looks nice next to the segway.
Real people won’t touch it with a ten foot pole.
“Real people wont touch it with a ten foot pole.”
Exactly. And why would they, when they can buy a Cruze that does almost as well on fuel for around $10K less after government subsidies on the Volt?
Volt drivers I know are “techy” types.
One guy lives 12 miles from work and didn’t buy gasoline the first 5 months.
Of course his wife has a Corvette LOL.
