Chevy Volt Engine Won't Recharge Batteries While Driving; Just A Regular Plug-In Hybrid?

We’re still waiting for Edmunds to call us back, so we don’t know if GM slid them this shot under the table or if they spent hours photoshopping all the man-on-Volt action out. Either way, this is the Volt as it will be when it’s officially unveiled later this week. More »
