Electric cars...they're actually doing this! Just like any cell phone, computer or other electronic gizmo; I would expect the price of the E-flex system to drop. And at that point; the Volt becomes much, much more sense!
But after all is said and done, after all the calculations are finished; the Volt only carries a few thousand dollar premium over a traditional car. It's just all lumped together into the intial cost...sticker shock for sure. But to be fair - it was never meant to save you money - it was meant to save you gas. 
And now, for a YouTube video...
Look at that interior!!

My point is most people are looking at the bottom line, and trying to justify purchasing a Volt just because it's trendy or to save the planet will not work for most people..
Untill you can get the cost for purchase to a reasonable level then it will not be a viable option for most people.
and unless you can sell electric cars in mass quanities the gas they save will be a drop in the bucket...
Remember, Obama says inflate your tires and we won't have an oil problem.....
