The innovative Chevy Volt keeps getting excellent reviews.

This GM creation was highly anticipated for years. Experts could not wait for the time to come: a car that could forever switch the course of the automotive industry.

Last week at Detroit, at the North American Auto Show, Volt received the title of 2011 North American Car of the Year. The decision was made by 49 automotive experienced journalists.

Chevy Volt’s features a set of Lithium Ion Batteries which can do about 35 miles, seconded by a gas regular gas engine, when more range is needed. This motor can go for about 300 miles.

The Volt can go from 0 to 60 MPH in surprisingly 9 seconds. We can say this is the most notable difference between other electric vehicles out there. And the fact that you can recharge your vehicle at the gas station of your convenience. Another very important thing to mention is, if you run your Volt on electric, you spend as little as $1.50 daily.

These and many more features make this car one of the top new cars to buy in 2011.
