Volt Stats! Tracking real world usage of Chevy Volts in the wild...
Thanks for posting it.
I'm of the mind set that anything that reduces gasoline use is good and although I think that most people would be able to get by with a 100% electric vehicle with a 100 mile range (less then 10% of the population drives over 100 miles per day) I see the Volt as an ok solution as well, I'm a little shocked at the price, seeing as how you can get a brand new Prius and the largest plug in hybrid kit that will give you about 35 miles of all electric range for less then then the cost of a new Volt, draw back with that of course is that Prius is not designed for sustained freeway driving in all electric mode so not everyone would benefit and a lot of people buy 100% gasoline powered cars that cost more then the Volt, so price is a weak arguing point.
The part that Chevy did get right is that the average driver drives 25 miles per day and from looking at the stats seem to show a large number of people drive in electric only mode a large part of the time.
My big question is, do you find it more annoying to plug your car in, or to go to a gas station? a gas station you only have to go to every few weeks but plugging in is best done after every trip and before the Volt was released that was the speculation of a lot of people is that no one would plug in their plug in hybrid.
