Is GM doing anything with electric vehicles?
GM is committed to producing electrically-driven vehicles, including hybrids, plug-in hybrids, hydrogen fuel cell vehicles, and extended range electric vehicles. GM’s most recent milestone was the announcement of the Chevy Volt concept electric vehicle. This is an extended range electric vehicle and is the first variant off GM’s E-Flex system. The E-Flex system can be configured to run on gas, ethanol or biodiesel to recharge the battery. An on-board engine or fuel cell creates electricity and extends the range of the vehicle. If produced, this vehicle could nearly eliminate going to the gas station for many owners and greatly reduce tailpipe emissions.
