It may just be a shell w/ normal hardware but I bet this is what the production car look like.

The back end of the profile shot sort of reminds me of the Subaru SVX.

Those wheels won't make it to production... Way too big for a car that is all about using less (or NO) gas...

Not a bad looking car though... GM says it's on schedule. I wonder when they will make it to the dealers and at what price...

Far better looking than other hybrid cars (like the Prius), and with better mileage to boot.

I found these pics including an interior pic on another forum.

I have to say I think this is the first time I'm seen a center stack in appliance/ipod white and I don't think I like it.

Looks like the buttons are capacitive, too.

Chevrolet News
GM decides on battery supplier for Chevrolet Volt

The 2010 Chevrolet Volt looks to be progressing right on schedule, and General Motors’ most talked about plug-in hybrid has reached yet another milestone: GM has decided on a battery supplier for the Volt’s lithium-ion battery packs.

Despite settling on a battery maker, GM has yet to officially announce which company has secured the contract. GM has been working with both Continental and LG Chem on the development of the Volt’s batteries.

GM vice chairman Bob Lutz also indicated that the Volt program could actually be progressing ahead of schedule. “The actual production of production vehicles may be earlier,” Lutz told the Detroit Free Press. The Volt is tentatively scheduled to begin production in November 2010.

“We haven’t hit any obstacles so far for the batteries,” Lutz continued. “They are all performing flawlessly. It’s almost scary we are not seeing any problems with the batteries.”

Although GM has yet to confirm, it has been rumored that the Volt will make its public debut at October’s Paris Motor Show.
kinda cool
