Reisender,
GM called it a Bev--which it clearly was not.
For you GM haters, the Volt was only powered by battery. The range extending gasoline engine did not power the vehicle. Therefore, it was designated a BEV.
Couldn't be more wrong. Once the batteries are depleted in the Volt, the gasoline engine hooked up directly to the drive train and would offer another 300+ miles of range. An ingenious design.
Contrary to a subsequent post, the Bolt is not a hybrid. It has a battery and electric motors, that's all.
That was me. I typed bolt instead of volt. I have corrected it. Good eye.
