John,

The Chevrolet Volt might just prove to be the game-changing car its supporters say it is, but General Motors expects to lose money on the car "for years," said Vice Chairman Bob Lutz.

If they are not launching until 2010, I can't se how it can be otherwise. It is 2 years of R&D.

I think the car will prove to be very popular. They need to hurry up.

Joe

Lutz said GM screwed up by ceding the hybrid market to Toyota even though it had largely mastered EV technology in the 1960s.

A telling statement if ever there was one.
