The Volt: At a dealer near you this year

VoltNationwideMapIt’s a map plug-in advocates want to see: By the end of the year, the Chevrolet Volt will be available nationwide in the U.S. — six months sooner than expected.

Yes, that means that even those of us not fortunate enough to live in the first and second-tier Volt rollout states (in orange and green on the map above), will be able to pick up a Volt at our local Chevy dealer, says GM.

The companyā€™s decision to accelerate the national rollout of the Volt was influenced by dealers such as Criswell Chevrolet in Gaithersburg, Maryland, who have witnessed a rapid increase of consumer interest in the EV, GM reports.
