Developing a new platform costs and they are not counting on Joe average to buy a volt. This is a car for upper middle class and upper class people who want their car to be a symbol of their dedication to a future that doesn't depend on foreign oil. They are also supporting a cleaner world without rising sea levels.

GM made the decision to develop the Volt prior to getting any government money. The thing was basically ready for production before the bailout. nothing like revisionist history. The program was developed under the previous administration.
