The Chevrolet Volt to get out at the end of the year is already a power. That is to say, it is only powered by an electric motor, the gasoline engine acts solely as a generator or battery to power electric motor.
Processing into 100% electric vehicle is therefore to remove the gasoline engine and increase the battery capacity to improve the story announced autonomy of 60 km all-electric mode of the hybrid.
The CEO of General Motors is therefore, in the Autocar magazine to declare that such a solution was proposed and that the transformation would naturally be quite simple. It is likely that the scheduled arrival of many similar electrical gauge on U.S. soil (or Nissan Leaf Focus BEV) is no stranger to this idea.
Bob Lutz has also admitted that the autonomy of the Volt hybrid electric mode 100% was much lower in cold weather, a drop that can reach 30%.
