Despite recent announcements that the new Chevrolet Volt will be released in 2020, Volt Vehicle Chief Engineer Nick Zielinski just announced over the weekend that “we don’t have to rush” when it comes to the Volt production.

According to Zielinski, GM is considering installing a solar panel in the Volt to power fans or provide a small charge to the battery. “We can’t use it to power the motor,” he said. “The amount of energy for a solar cell is 75 watts, not enough to power the vehicle at 20-50 mph.”

He further added that “a lot of people” have contacted GM to sign up for a test-drive of the Volt, but “we’re not at a stage where we can do that.” He also said the automaker is not ready to take deposits on a production version of the vehicle. Zielinski also was coy about when and where production of the Volt will take place, saying, “We do not assign assembly plants this early in a program.” He assured viewers that “we will be building it,” although he refused to “share timing targets.” He did not reveal pricing information about the Volt, but said it may have a “slight premium” over unspecified competitive vehicles.

Zielinski said the Volt’s system is “tailored more to compact and intermediate-size vehicles” and assured viewers that “we’ll have other vehicles out there.” But “you may not see a pickup truck with E-flex,” he said. GM describes E-flex as a “family of propulsion systems.”

For Chevrolet fans out there, there’s no need to worry. Looks like the plan for the Volt is still very well alive, we’ll just have to wait.
