I dont know what you are takling about lies but i guess it comes from your ability to actually understand what is being said.
Contradictions On The Website http://www.chevrolet.com/electriccar...index.jsp?id=2:
1) "Althoug the technical innovation and marketing efforts behind the EV1 were unparalleled, only 800 people were willing to lease the EV1." WRONG The movie, Who Killed The Electric Car?, show-cased this issue and provides detail about the petition to get more on the roads. Maybe Chevrolet was pointing out the fact that only 800 Chevy salesman were willing to lease the EV1.

2) "Yes, the EV1 quickly became the worldwide benchmark for electric vehicles, but its timing wasn't quite right" WRONG Even a high school debating student could pick this argument apart! If your product became a benchmark, how can you say it was not right?

3) Finally (for now), if you read this section further you come across this statement, "gas was cheap, there wasn't a war in Iraq". Is Chevrolet making a relationship between the war in Iraq and the cost of gas? Several leading politicians would love to debate this issue.

My final stab is at Jill Banaszynski, you should stop using contractions in your formal arguments. They just ain't cool. Additionally, your arguments on the behalf of GM are dangerous because they show a deep rooted, corporate refusal to admit a mistake made over 10 years ago.

How can we trust that GM is working in our best interest this time around?

How do we know that the high sticker price for the Volt is not just a desire to extract more money for the nearly vacant company bank accounts?
