Bruce Nunnally Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Beth Lowery addresses the audience By Beth Lowery Vice President, GM Environment and Energy In January, GM caused great excitement when we revealed the Chevrolet Volt, our plug-in electric hybrid concept vehicle. Since that time, we have received many questions about the car, particularly relating to the challenges of battery technology. Today, I led a discussion before 100 members of the media and bloggers who joined in person and by webcast. The battery briefing: (1) introduced GM’s new battery team and summarized where we’ve been GM learned from its past work with the EV1 and lead acid batteries; (2) where we are GM has evolved to nickel metal hydride batteries in vehicles like the current Saturn Vue Green Line; and (3) where we’re going to make a production-worthy car, the vehicle must meet a potential car buyer’s expectations in terms of performance, cost, safety and reliability and the battery is an integral part of that process. http://fastlane.gmblogs.com/archives/2007/...ing_the_pl.html Bruce 2023 Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing Follow me on: Twitter Instagram Youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
