Description

One of the more interesting concept cars at the show. Pretty hot looking too for being a hybrid. I was impressed that Chevy put something like that together.

NY International Auto Show, Saturday April 14, 2007.

Here are some random specs/facts:

"Concept Volt utilizes the GM-patented E-Flex Propulsion System to bring you an electric drive vehicle that can run on various sources of energy. It consists of:

Electric drive system.
Range extender: 53 kW direct engine-mounted generator and 3-cylinder 1.0L Turbocharged, intercooled internal combustion engine.
Dual (left- and right-side) charge ports.
Onboard battery pack.
12-gallon fuel saddle tank.

An onboard 3-cylinder 1.0L Turbocharged, intercooled internal combustion engine allows you to keep driving when your electric battery needs to be recharged. This range extender can be configured to run on gasoline, E85 or biodiesel. The model shown will use gasoline or E85 interchangeably and can hold up to 12 gallons of fuel.

120-kW electric motor is equivalent to a 160-hp engine.
Instantaneous torque in electric mode means acceleration faster than traditional torque curve in certain gasoline-powered engines.
0–60 in 8 to 8.5 seconds.
Battery life is about 10 years.

Expect an estimated 150 equivalent miles per gallon when you use this electric battery and gasoline-combination to drive approximately 60 miles per day." - [link]
