Chevrolet Volt showcased at Winter Games
The Volt will go on sale in Canada in mid-2011. It is propelled by electricity at all times and all speeds, providing up to 64 kilometres on a single charge, and using a small gasoline engine as a generator for extended range capability.

The company estimated that when using British ColumbiaÂ’s clean electricity, the Volt will have less than four per cent of the greenhouse gas emissions of the most fuel-efficient hybrid on the market today, and will cost less than one dollar per day for a full charge.
