Yep, more GM fail. Taxpayer funded, same old stupid uncompetitive nonsense.
The Nissan Leaf will be for sale at almost $10k less than the Nissan model - and that's AFTER a federal tax credit (which will undoubtedly go away before too long).
Is there anyone left out there who doesn't believe this company shouldn't have been left to liquidate?

Chevy prices Volt at $41,000 but will push leases
A federal tax credit would shave the electric car's price to $33,500. The carmaker turns heads by offering leases as low as $350 a month. The rival Nissan Leaf will sell for as little as $20,280 or lease for $349 a month.

The Chevrolet Volt, the first mass-market electric vehicle from General Motors Co., will have a sticker price starting at $41,000 when it hits showrooms this year, but it was the attractive lease offer that the automaker announced Tuesday that grabbed the attention of industry analysts.
Chevrolet plans to offer a lease program on the Volt with a monthly payment as low as $350 for 36 months plus $2,500 due at lease signing, a deal that could speed up adoption of the new generation of automobiles by making them competitive with traditional gasoline-powered vehicles.
