K,
You are not looking at the facts. The mileage of 30 is NOT combined, but gas alone. As far as the savings, if a person does only drive say 15 miles in a day, then he never buys gas but ... is only saving the difference between a half a gallon of gas and $.90 of electricity or about $1.10 a day. That will not ever provide a payback for the owner for the taxpayers.
And the issue of us taxpayers paying a direct subsidy is only part of the equation. Since we bought and paid for half of GM stock we are indeed paying for massive costs in the Volt project. Would not be so bad if there was a light at the end of this tunnel, but without the battery technology it just can not happen.
