The one thing your historicism didn't tell is the new green trend; just because it happened in the past cannot assert it must happen again in the future. Also, this is not a pure EV but an EREV. Acknowledging both of these facts will lead one to assume that the Volt will sell in relatively larger numbers than any of its predecessors.
