I am definitely such an amazing fan of this car. I see that a lot of orders are coming in for this car. I just love the design and see this car selling a lot in the future. Pallet Racking Vancouver

I like how this Opel looks like! It's very elegant and in the same time very sporty! It's awesome!

I agree, the Opal exterior looks way better than the VOLT! Interesting how minor design changes can effect the overall look of a car.

Considering I personally travel only 20-30 miles a day to and from work/other, and would like to have the security of a PHEV with gas range extended capabilities, I am happy there is a car on the market with an American car manufacturers name tagged on it. Also, I am sure GM positioned and marketed themselves quite accurately for their target market, while also trying to reach out to the broader public.

Not everyone has the money or knowledge to just run and pick-up an all electric vehicle. Baby steps are necessary. Now stop being a negative nancy, and try focusing that energy on doing something productive.

GM wants to stay with them accepting the responsibility for killing the electric car in America; that is the purpose of the “plain jane” $450 billion dollar Volt. You will never see a ‘a well designed sought after’ electric or hybrid vehicle come from GM and aimed for the U.S. They even coined the phrase ‘range anxiety’ to scare people away from electric vehicles and even provided an incredible low range battery for the electric motor of the Volt. The Volt is not an extended range electric; it is an extended range ICE and that extended range is less than 40 miles.

The Volt doesn’t look *bad*, but it is a mystery why the U.S. car doesn’t look more like this. It looks too average considering the fact that it has a fairly high price point (it looks like an average car, and costs like this version looks; not a ridiculous price, by any stretch, but definitely expensive enough that its aesthetics should be tuned up).

Glad to hear some good news. Since sales in the US are in the dumps, the production can be increased for countries that actually want this incredible car for some other use than a political punching bag.

I would buy a Volt if it looked like the Ampera. Heck sell the Ampera here as a Volt 2.0 and find a way to make the back seat hold three adults.
