GM Plans to Make 60,000 Chevrolet Volts by 2012
Sales on hybrids grow each day and auto makers do not want to lose their chance. General Motors which owns Chevrolet brand announced about the plans for the future.
Though the number of the new Chevrolet Volts in some way will be strictly dependable on the “electric component supplier capability”, the representatives of the company are still saying the manufacturer is planning to build 10,000 hybrids by 2011 and 60,000 by 2012.
Chevrolet Volt is a substitution for Cobalt and its production will start in the end of 2010. The company plans to build it at the Detroit plant. The price of the new hybrid will be around $40,000.
If everything goes as General Motor’s experts expect, Volt will be available in dealerships by November 2010.
