...hm-m-m-m, sounds like a re-skinned GM-VOLT...I wonder why(?)
Thats because it is. Its a Chevy Volt with a new bumper. Mainly because Chevy doesnt sell cars in continental Europe (they sell rebadged Daewoos and Vauxhalls with at least 1 original Chevy, the Cruze, in Britain) so they put the Volt under the Opel/Vauxhall brand, which does sell cars to all of Europe. Its simple as marketing the car under a recognizable marque, so it will sell.
