The Chevy Volt will have a new name and a new manufacturer when it goes on sale in November 2010 - the Toyota Jolt. According to sources within Toyota and GM, the decision was made after President Obama's auto task force deemed the Volt to be too little, too late and too expensive to save General Motors. To save on production costs for both companies, the re-badged Toyota Jolt will be manufactured at the NUMMI plant in Fremont, California. NUMMI is the same plant where the GM/Toyota co-produced Toyota Matrix/Pontiac Vibe is made.

Hope this doesn't cause copyright name issues with Jolt Cola!!!

God forbid someone could confuse a super caffine drink, with a car!

In the mist of such huge changes in the automotive industry, I always look forward to "news" like this.

The Chrysler partnership with China will produce the Colt? - no wait, Dodge already did something similar. . . .

Holden Australia will be selling the Volt as the Holden Effigy with a new Holden built body shell.
