How much EV1 DNA did GM put into the Volt?

[ChewChewTrain]

Just wondering if GM put the lessons learned from building the EV1 into the Volt OR was all that valuable knowledge lost when GM crushed all the EV1s?

[trollbait]

It wasn't lost. The Volt has the same T-shaped battery pack as the EV1, and may have even had a 4 seater hybrid concept of the EV1 before they were all destroyed. GM also had hybrid patents on file before the Prius.
