My 2 cents, random points.

It is helpful to separate politics from the car.
The Volt handles great from a low center of gravity and is fun to drive.
One of our customers estimates he has used 1 gallon of gas in his first month of ownership.
Battery technology will improve,costs will come down and range will go up.
As gas continues to rise they become more viable.
It is a niche vehicle and high volumes are not expected.
What GM learns from the Volt will transfer to E Assist and other Hybrids.

And the top reason;

The gas that is saved by Volt owners I will be able to use in my 550HP Camaro....
