Consumer Reports: GM Volt falls short on range General Motors’ mostly electric Chevy Volt turned in a lackluster performance for efficiency in its first series of road tests by product raters at Consumer Reports. “We would have really liked to have loved it,” David Champion, director of Consumer Reports auto test center told Reuters on Monday after announcing the organization’s top picks for 2011. “It was fun to drive and the ride quality was pretty good. But when you look at the finances, for us it doesn’t make any sense,” Champion said. Champion said the Volt that Consumer Reports bought and tested ran for 26 miles before the vehicle’s gasoline engine kicked in. After promoting a 40-mile electric-only range for most of the Volt’s development, GM last year introduced a sliding scale of between 25 and 50 miles. chicagobreakingbusiness.com
