What has been the most challenging engineering decision you’ve made on the Volt program so far? Keep up the great work that you and the rest of the Volt team are doing!

Watched Nova last night on my local PBS station where the Chev Volt had lots of time. The show was shot at least a few yrs ago so wasn’t the most up to date but a few GM’ers were there and came over as SUPER positive on the VOLT. Wish they would do an update on that show with the same guys, the Tap It Brothers from public radio fame. I believe the tv show was titled CARS OF THE FUTURE.
