Follow EarthBlips on TwitterWhat Does GM's Bankruptcy Mean for the Chevy Volt?
Published 6/2/2009 by The Huffington Post News Team at Green on HuffingtonPost.com
A couple of months ago, GM said that it would keep the Chevy Volt even if it lost money. Now, post Chapter 11, they're saying that the bankruptcy won't affect the Volt. The problem is, the US government might have the final say on the matter, and Obama's auto task force seemed to think that the Volt might not make commercial sense (like the Wall Street Journal). What will happen to the Volt?
