I don't care what GM wants to call it, I do not call the Volt an ELECTRIC car. Hybrid works for me, but a car that has a 4 cylinder engine and all the related ICE goodies so that is needs to belly up to the gasoline pump doesn't fit my definition of electric.
That said, I still hope they manage to bring it to market. The pricing structure looks like they don't want anyone to buy it though. If you financed $38000 to buy the car (it is a $40k + base price car, and don't expect to haggle down the price any time soon) at 5.25% for 60 months, the payments will be over $720 a month. But they will lease it to you for less than half that. IMO, they don't want to sell it. The $7,500 tax credit you'd get won't change your monthly payment unless you refinance it.
