Ramey Princeton Chevrolet Reveals Volt as North American Car of the Year

Jan. 11, 2011 - PRLog -- Ramey Princeton Chevrolet informs West Virginia Chevrolet enthusiasts that the Chevrolet Volt took home the title of North American Car of the Year yesterday at the Detroit Auto Show. The Chevrolet Volt competed against another new vehicle, the Nissan Leaf, as well as a revamped version of an older car, the Hyundai Sonata.

Judging for the competition consisted of a panel of 50 automotive experts. The awards process was administered by five journalists, including Tony Swan from Car and Driver and freelance journalist Christopher Jensen. In order to be eligible for the award, cars must have undergone significant changes.

One of the committee members, Lindsay Brooke from Automotive Engineering International, noted that “The Volt seamlessly bridges the gulf between today’s liquid fueling infrastructure and the plugged-in electric future.” Dan Akerson, GM’s CEO, was thrilled with the news and hopes that more West Virginia Chevrolet consumers will see the value of an electric vehicle. “Being named North American Car of the Year will help convince customers that the Volt is truly a breakthrough vehicle, delivering the benefits of electric driving without the range anxiety associated with pure electric vehicles.”
