Chevy Volt in China!


Rocky Mount Ford Dealer is a long way from China, but that is where the new release of the highly anticipated Chevy Volt is taking place.  General Motors is releasing the Chevy Volt primarily in the United States, and a few global markets have been selected to receive the fuel efficient vehicle as well.  China is a large segment of the auto market, and they need high fuel efficiency vehicles just like any other urban region.  Chattanooga Nissan Dealers also sell a wide variety of fuel efficient vehicles, like the popular Nissan Sentra. 

Similar to the American government, China has agreed to help subsidize the initial high costs of ownership to increase popularity of the electric car market in their country.  They plan on investing about $14.7 billion over the next ten years.  As of right now, the price of the Chevy Volt in China has not been released yet.  You can find the prices of vehicles by going to Fort Worth Dodge Chrysler Dealers or visiting dealership websites.  Currently, there are great deals on outgoing 2010 inventory, but the Volt is an all new model.  At the World Expo 2010 held in Shanghai this year, General Motors brought two of the electric vehicles to be part of the fleet used to transport the VIP in attendance. 

In the United States, the 2011 Chevrolet Volt will cost you a minimum of $40,280.  China hopes to keep the price of the Volt competitive in their market to increase sales and popularity.  Some things about the Volt that consumers and auto experts hope to see quick improvement on, especially when you consider the price, are: overall size, the fact that there are only four seat belts when several small cars have five, and the backseat being rather uncomfortable and unaccommodating.  Besides that, being able to drive 300 miles on a single charge is quite impressive.
