GM Volt Takes on Electric Vehicle Competition

This is cute for city dwellers that don't use any fuel. The bulk of fuel is consumed on the freeway. What will be the fuel economy when this thing has to run on its' generator?

My diesel Passat has a 750 mile range with 50 year old technology that has only been revised to handle the low sulfur fuel with a catalytic converter and improved turbo and fuel injectors std stuff. Less than 7 cents a mile for a full size car at $2.75/gal.
Each VW has gone in excess of 300,000 miles and I can buy fuel where i need it.
GM and Ford both make very good diesels they sell in Europe. Sell them here!
