Why you ask?!

Well Bob Lutz came out with a thousands promises with the Volt, hit hurdles with each statement. Car was never meant to be a hybrid, now GM uses their failure (hybrid vs full electric) as an excuse by comparing it other full electric cars and saying "well now you have a gas option just incase you run out of juice, not like the other competition"
I think thats sad, compare it to other hybrids, dont shoot other FULL electric cars range.
Anyways the design is great, sure its a hybri, thats great, just hate the false advertising.
It is full electric, the gas engine is a generator. With that in mind why compare it to hybrids.

I do not see it as a failure at all. It is a really neat car with a ton of technology. I commend GM for this vehicle as I feel it will evolve into an even better vehicle.

Don't be a hater.
