Chevy and Ford Promise Electric Cars in 2010 and 2011
As the hours wind down before the 2009 Detroit Auto Show finally kicks off in the morning, more vehicles are leaking through the manufacturers' embargo nets. The latest addition to the list is the 2010 Chevy Spark, teased earlier this week on Today by GM design honcho Ed Welburn.

You can thank the lawyers for this concept. Chevrolet's new Volt, the hybrid-EV coming out next year, will have “car sounds” added. Yep, the worry that blind or deaf people won't hear it (yeah, they said “deaf people won't hear it”--you can't make this stuff up) and will get hit by a motorist, who will in turn sue Chevy for making a car that's too quiet, caused the thinkers at General
