DAMN! Just like toyota's, honda's, nissan's.....what a fraud.


What is the live expectancy of the Volt's batteries? According to my
battery expert it is about 400 cycles from charged to drained and then
the LIon batteries will be useless and in need of replacement. What is
the value of a Volt with a non-functioning battery pack? How much would
you pay for a used Prius with a non-functioning battery pack?

Oh, and what is it going to cost you to recycle your Volt battery pack?
You can't just pull it out and leave it in the garage or the backyard.
