Chevy Volt is now a Cadillac?

That would make sense actually, since it will be fairly expensive. I just saw a news clip from the Detroit Auto Show (I think) and it was dressed as a Caddy.

The VW Bluesport diesel, a clean 55 mpg 2 seater sypder concept seems to have stolen the Volt's thunder.

Chrysler and Ford are also announcing electrics for 2010 without all the press and fanfare that the Volt has been getting. Makes me wonder if they're licensing Volt technology since many of the specs, like range and battery configuration, look the same.
