Is Chevy "Fuel Solutions" Just a Smoke Screen?

Can it be? Is the electric car really making a comeback? Apparently, among other "fuel solutions" Chevrolet is touting its new Concept Chevy Volt EV.

The Volt uses only electricity for the first 40 miles, then switches to gasoline, ethanol (E85) or biodiesel to address the issue of range. Which in my vocabulary makes it more a "plug-in hybrid" than a truly "Electric" vehicle.

But the real question is, will it get out of the Concept phase and into production?

See for yourself. Let me know what you think...
