I like this part of the same article:

At the other end of the spectrum, GM is seeking tax abatements as it mulls
a $1.2 billion expansion of its Arlington, Tex., plant that makes its
profitable large SUVs.

I can't say I've even seen a volt. Priuses are all over Chicago, heck they
use them as cabs. You can hear teslas every now and then too.

Biggest market for Chevy Volt is California.

I don't see things getting better sales wise for the Chevy Volt. It's still too expensive.

I HAVE seen a couple of them, but that's it, just a couple of units.

At least at our university, there are a bunch of Civic Hybrids, and other
Honda and Toyota hybrid models. There is a guy who has a Tesla, too.
