I suppose this will resolve the current resistance to the Volt.

The design was likely meddled with by an accountant that did not understand that resistance produces heat and large resistance produces large heat. The money saved by GM in using a too small gage wire is spent by the customer in energy waste.

The heat by the way is wasted energy. The amount of charging juice wasted to heat rather than charging is money just thrown away.
