At the Plug-In 2010 Conference in San Jose today, General Motors announced that the 2011 Chevy Volt will be priced from $41,000 (including a $720 destination charge) before federal and state tax incentives. It can also be had for $350 per month for 36 months lease.
When you count federal tax credit, the purchase price will drop to $33,500, and lessees will have the credit factored into their monthly payment as well.
“The Chevrolet Volt will be the best vehicle in its class…because it’s in a class by itself,” said Joel Ewanick, vice president of U.S. marketing for General Motors, who made the announcement at the Plug-In 2010 conference. “No other automaker offers an electrically driven vehicle that can be your everyday driver, to take you wherever, whenever. The Volt will be packed with premium content and innovation, standard.”
While it’s still more expensive than the upcoming Nissan Volt all-electric vehicle, the new Volt will come standard with a long list of amenities, including satellite navigation, five years of OnStar service, and even an eight-year/100,000 mile battery warranty. GM will eventually introduce a new base model that will feature a lower price and fewer standard features.
When the Volt goes on sale it will be available at 600 Chevrolet dealers located in specific markets. These dealers will be the only ones certified to sell and service the Volt.
