GM Will Make Pure-Electric Version of Chevy Volt - ABC News

GM Will Make Pure-Electric Version of Chevy Volt - ABC News: "'Once you've done the Volt, pure electric is trivial. You just leave some parts out,' Lutz said.

Lutz also said electric vehicles may not get the stated range on fully electric power because of weather, atmospheric conditions, terrain and driving habits. He said he had a Volt during the Thanksgiving weekend and got only 28 miles on full-electric power because of the cold weather.

'It varies a lot more than the range variation with a gasoline-powered car depending on your driving style,' Lutz said."
