I was reading the comments on one of those links, and I stumbled across this.

It would be even better to not take a trip with it. The main point of these cars are to not burn gas. (I don't say have NO carbon emissions because more than likely you'd be using a coal plant to charge it up. (Hopefully gasification works well). It seems a bit silly to use a fully electric car by hooking up a combustion generator. (Maybe that's just me but it's a bit comical). Just a couple thoughts above, not attacks.
Found it ironic that a random (probably non eco-modder) knew that the Chevy Volt is a failure.
