General Motors Corp. wants the world to know that the Chevrolet Volt electric concept car -- and the company's quest to diversify the energy sources used to propel the world's automobiles -- aren't PR stunts.

To prove it, Bob Lutz, GM's vice chairman and global chief of product development, said the automaker plans to take the unusual step throughout the development of the Volt and its lithium battery of opening much of the development process to the news media.

On Monday, GM took the first step in keeping that promise, providing more than 50 journalists and bloggers with a tour of its hybrid vehicle battery lab in Warren. . . .
Ok, who here let GM know they have a credibility problem? . . . Come on, fess up!

On a serious note, this is a step in the right direction but begs the question, 'What about the 2-stage hybrid transmission?'

Bob Wilson

ps. Is that laughter coming from 4-18, Koraku 1-chrome, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, Japan?
