So if you know what the future holds, we would certainly like to hear it.
Hydro-electric, hundreds of years old, doesn't make a car go unless it's and EV. Current battery technology prohibits EVs from doing much more than 50 to 75 miles. The Volt is the practical answer until that future thing actually comes along. I don't think anyone, even GM ever said this was the solution for the future. It's simply the answer until you can get a battery to provide enough range and to recharge quickly. Both technologies that don't exist today and won't exist for at least a few more years.
