"Since when did $41K (really $33.5) get classed as a "massive price"? That is an absolutely typical mid-level sedan price, and apparently the volt is fairly well equipped." Since the economic crisis happened. I'm not even on my way to saving for my first car, and I'm already looking for cars under $10,000. Most families that are not well off usually look for cars in the $20-30 grand range. So 41K is a lot - in today's terms.

>Since the economic crisis happened. I'm not even on my way to saving for my first car, and I'm already looking for cars under $10,000. I'm not sure if the economic crisis has anything to do with that. I haven't seen any major slashing of prices. Quite the opposite, in fact: Incentives and deals have disappeared, and the net cost has increased. >Most families that are not well off usually look for cars in the $20-30 grand range. So 41K is a lot - in today's terms. I don't think it's intending to compete with standard family vehicles. This is a very low quantity run, targeted at the sort of (young professionals) people who would likely have bought a VW TDI or something, where the price range isn't all that different.
