U.S. automakers haven’t
had much good news to share lately. GM, in particular, has been
going through a rough time, entering bankruptcy, shedding assets,
and relying on bailouts from the U.S. and Canadian governments
to stay in business. Th e news isn’t entirely bleak, however.
Chevrolet, one of the brands in the GM automotive stable, has
recently introduced the Volt, a gas/electric hybrid that might
fi Nally give drivers a viable alternative to the wildly popular
Toyota Prius.
Your task: Working with a team assigned by your instructor,
write a post for GM’s dealer-only blog that describes the new Volt
and the benefit to it off errs car owners. Include at least one photo
and one link to the Volt section of GM’s website. You can learn
more about the Volt at Chevy’s website, www.chevrolet.com.
