Chevy Volt - future GM failure - Toyota Yaris Forums

The EV-1 story is a prime example of GM's arrogance, and stupidity. It ran on lead-acid, off-the-shelf technology, and those who leased them wanted to keep them. So, in its wisdom, GM took the lot back and chopped them up into little pieces. Hell, they kept producing the Corvair for the public, why not the EV-1???

And who in their right mind is going to pay 25G for a replacement battery?
