Chevy set up a closed course in a shopping mall parking lot outside Austin for the Volt, and it invited about 75 people to give it a test-drive, from members of the press to "social influencers" with big Twitter followings to local members of the Austin Electric Vehicle Association.
This individual Volt, here driven by CNET's Caroline McCarthy, is one of about 80 Volts that have been hand-built as part of the car's development process. Factory production of test vehicles will begin this spring.
