Re: Breaking news! Chevy volt technically driven by gas engine!
I'm guessing if the electric Focus uses a conventional transmission, Ford will go with a double clutch, like in the Fiesta. Hub mounted motors would be sweet, but unlikely.
In the event a Volt is owned by someone who never exceeds the electric range, GM has programed the control system to idle the engine every once and awhile to circulate the oil and get fresher fuel into the lines. Not everyone knows about sta-bil.
