So are you lining up to buy a new Volt?

It think it's great GM is doing it, taking some risks, approaching it from a slightly different angle than the other companies are. That's all good stuff. As someone who has bought and been burned by GM products in the past I can boil it down to 2 things:

1) Would you pay more for a Volt than a Prius? Just on quality experience, I'd pay a premium to go Toyota, personally. It's anecdotal but a GM is going to have to be incredibly compelling for me to go back.

2) Would you pay $40k for anything from GM that's not a corvette, Cadillac or like an industrial truck?

What's the overall goal of the Volt? Are they looking to have 5million of them on the road and it'll be the next Taurus or Accord or something? Is it supposed to be a platform for future development? Is it a one off? Is it hitting that mark? What's so compelling for it to cost more than a prius?
