Again, completely untrue. A) Volt not a series hybrid B) the gas engine in Gen 2 Volt was not taken from their production line, it is an Atkinson Cycle engine designed for generators, not for their crappy ICE trucks and SUVs.

C'mon, can people research before opining?

"While it shares many parts with the new 1.5L I-4 used in other GM products, the Gen II engine’s combustion process and calibration are specific to the Volt. Its larger displacement not only improves fuel efficiency but also provides more torque, which contributes to the Gen II Volt’s surprising quietness."
