it is GM's fault we are this late to EV"s for what they did 15 years ago. so I would never buy a volt under any conditions.
but I did the 10 year TRC of the Leaf and the Volt.
Leaf $29,000 plus 2 batteries (I drive 30 to 40 thousands miles a year so will need a new battery every 3 or 4 years) $12,000 for a total 10 year TRC (total real cost) of around $41,000
10 Year TRC of a volt (for me) $98,500 a lot of that being FUEL and NONE of that being replacement batteries since we have no price for this yet from GM.
Ouch. easy decision for me.
