Chevy Bolt to be unveiled at Detroit Auto Show

Later post. Believe it or not, the new Chevy Volt is to be called the Bolt. Many news agencies are using that name  with a straight face tonight. The re-designed Bolt, newly fashioned with a 200-mile per charge capacity, will be on display at the Detroit Auto  Show. The show opens tomorrow, January 12 and runs to  Sunday, January 25, 2015. The Volt has been on the market since 2010 and has had lot of bad news to fight off in the form of fires.  The Bolt has new features. It can switch to a gas engine and has the ability to travel four times as far on a charge as the Volt. The Bolt will compete with a new Tesla electric vehicle, also expected out in 2017, called the Model 3. That vehicle is expected to sell in the $35,000 U.S.
