A Forbes piece is blasting the Chevrolet Volt as a failure
again, calling General Motors out for what the magazine says is a manipulation
of sales numbers for the extended-range electric vehicle.
The publication has published an editorial by contributor
Patrick Michaels which accused the automaker of "giving away
rent-a-Volts," saying the model's record-high sales of 2,831 units last
month were artificially inflated because about two-thirds of the sales were
leased (for as little as $199 a month).
