Chevrolet Volt: A sneak peek at GM's plug-in hybrid -- latimes.com

Chevrolet Volt: A sneak peek at GM's plug-in hybrid -- latimes.com: "Based on a national average of 11 cents per kilowatt-hour, GM estimates it will cost about 80 cents per day to fully charge the Volt. In electric mode, that works out to about two cents per mile. A comparable gas-powered car would cost about 12 cents per mile to operate, according to GM's figures.

In any event, GM figures the Volt will average more than 100 miles per gallon for most consumers. 'I drove it for over 200 miles one weekend and used two-tenths of a gallon of gas,' Farah said."
