I mean, if you don't want the car, then don't buy one. WGAS.
If you're in the EV market, aka looking to buy an EV, then Volt is worth every penny compared to its competitors.
And honestly, unless you're driving something that gets absolutely abysmal fuel economy, does it make sense to buy ANY brand new car at all to save on gas once you factor in purchase cost, maintenance cost, etc?

"Why does every Volt thread degenerate into whether or not the car is worth it?"
Because its not. Most people looking for those types of cars are looking to save on gas. Sure there are plenty like you listed that want it for other reasons, but they are in the minority. MPG is one of the most important things people care about nowadays when it comes to car purchasing and the lack of Volt sales is evidence of that.
Why are you so confused here? This is a thread about Volt sales. The Volt isn't selling well, so why would you not expect people to discuss why it is not selling well?
