Default Cadillac 'Volt'

Cadillac 'Volt' production set for end of 2013

Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2012/...#ixzz2ABnkzeOy

i think it looks pretty good, apart from the hideous front. i wish they'd drop the 'corporate face' ideology. Will Cadillac buyers be interested in a Hybrid car?

I'll bet it will look bugger all like that concept pictured above.

And if its anything like Volt it will be a sales flop, just a more expensive one.

I think that looks the part. To bad it won't look anything like that should they produce it. Look really 'futuristic'

I really dont think people will make the jump to hybrid enough to make that worth while for them to produce.... More goverment invest in Goverment Motors?
