Jay Leno Drives Chevy Volt, and He Likes It

Jay Leno loves cars and owns over 80 of them. When he voices an opinion on the matter, we tend to listen, so it was good to hear him talk about the much-hyped Chevrolet Volt.
Leno, who performed a free comedy show at the Palace of Auburn Hills in Detroit this past Monday, also got a chance to test drive the Volt. After his visit, Leno had this to say to the Detroit News about the floundering auto company: "GM's not bankrupt yet! I was there today actually, [sic] I saw a lot of good product." The tone invoked by Leno is not surprising. Even before Leno's trip to Detroit, AutoBlogGreen found him lavishing praise on GM's new green car, saying, "I think it will be great. I think you'll find that the Volt will be a superior package to the Prius."
Let's hope he's right. In a sense, the Chevy Volt is an automotive symbol of renewed American intentions and ambitions. We would hate to be disappointed. [From: The Detroit News Via: AutoBlogGreen]

If the Volt has a down side it's that it is a plug in electric. Other than
that it's better looking (the photo above is a prototype), and more roomy. Only time will tell if it will be a success. EV1 owners,your
time has come.

Only people who make Jay Leno's type of money will be the only ones who can afford this car.Give me a break !!! If this is GM only hope to survive,then just go under and wish the company would have mades small cars instead of big gas guzzlers in Trucks and SUVs.Poor management and just flat out GREED !!!!
