The DeLorean still needed the fabulous Renault PRV V6 to make it to 88 MPH (roughly max speed for the DMC-12). Now a Mr. Fusion juicing the Volt, there's an idea...

It needs to be priced to compete with the Prius at the $20,000 to $25,000 price range. How is this going to be “THE CAR THAT SAVES GM” if it costs $40,000?

The battery pack in the EV1 is 3x the size of the one in the Volt (so no room for a range-extender engine). Its batteries are NiMH, which means nickel mining is involved in the process, which is a filthy, carcinogenic process, to boot. wHITE rL,

Why don't they just use the battery technology that they put in their EV 1's back in the 90's?! They worked great, didn't make a sound, and charged in about 20 minutes. But no, they can't because they don't want anything to do with them anymore. It was big oil, the government, and GM it self destroyed the batteries and EV 1's. GM, your really starting to make me pissed off! Are you kidding me? Why don’t they just use the battery technology that they put in their
