Chevrolet Volt - attributions Wonderdawg777

Last Wednesday at the Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant, the first pre-production Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid rolled off the line, according to a statement from General Motors Co.

But don’t expect to see these pre-production versions at the dealerships as they won’t be sold there and will instead be used as test cases, which ensure that the quality targets by the Volt engineering team will be met. In the next few months, workers will be producing more pre-production Volts. The manufacturing engineers would then be examining these vehicles as the plant prepares to produce retail models. The Volt has a range of up to 40 miles on battery power. The Volt will go on sale in November and for the first year, GM expects to sell up to 11,000 units
