Waiting List for GM's Electric 'Volt' Just over 33,000. By Kevin Krolicki, Reuters, August 12, 2008. "In a bid to show the demand for the upcoming all-electric Chevrolet Volt, a [Lyle Dennis, a New York neurologist and] proponent of the car has released details of an unofficial waiting list [he's been assembling through his website, GM-Volt.com] for the vehicle with [33,411] prospective buyers [listed]… On Tuesday, Dennis released details… [of] the list [which] shows the highest number of potential Volt buyers in California, Texas, Florida and Michigan. It also includes potential buyers from 46 countries outside the U.S. The average price buyers were willing to pay… was $31,261 -- substantially less than the $40,000 GM has said it will cost to build the first-generation of the car equipped with a massive lithium-ion battery pack [and due out in 2010]."
