Something I've learned in Physiology...

Structure limits function.

If the car has the aerodynamics of a brick, then the E-Flex drivetrain is completely wasted on overcoming drag.

And what's wrong with the Volt being a family car? Not every car has to be a sports car, especially considering that the Volt is meant to be used as a daily driver. That's one of the reasons the EV-1 failed, it was too small and was a two-seater.
