Re: Car question ?
Do you have a link? I just looked at The site and it said 40 miles, 50 max on about four or five different pages. Maybe you saw a km number mislabeled.

Mechanically this is the same as the volt except for the charging port. The front of the Opal/Vauxhall is different than the Volt but that shouldn't result in any major mph difference. I also read that 220 charging of the batteries should not drastically change the range vs 110 which is the US standard.

In any case I don't see what point it is when a Nissan leaf which WILL do 3 times the miles is far cheaper anyway.
I live a bit south of saratoga and don't see the use of an electric car that does only 40 miles on a charge ?, that would get me to work, but not back.
