November 23, 2010 - New Canaan, CT


The EPA has just announced official fuel economy ratings for the Nissan Leaf, the first mass-produced Electric Car.  The Leaf will display a fuel economy rating of 99mpg, even though the car uses no 'gasoline' in the true sense of the word. Unlike the Chevy VOLT, which has an onboard gas-powered generator providing unlimited extended range electric driving, the Nissan Leaf is a pure electric vehicle that is limited by the range of its battery.  Nissan has been touting the Leaf as having a 100 mile range before needing a recharge.  However, in official testing, the EPA has estimated the Leaf's real world range at 73 miles.

Late last week, while sitting at his desk working up a quote for a customer, Steve Karl was greeted by a gentleman in his office doorway who introduced himself as "Manager of Residual Values" for General Motors.  No big deal; we get visits from lots of GM Executives here at KARL Chevrolet as our dealership is close to GM's Northeast Regional Offices.  But it was Leo Burns' next statement that got Steve's attention:  "Do you have a minute to come outside and check out the all new 2011 Chevy VOLT?"The 2011 Chevy VOLT visits Karl Chevrolet in New Canaan CT
