General Motors is making a move in difficult times with the Chevrolet Volt, making an exclusive preview presentation to staff, in a gesture of appreciating the sweat and hard work of personnel in making this model possible.

The company is underlining the strategic importance of this vehicle, that at times took on chimera properties. The car will revealed around 16th September, celebrating 100 years of GM, although it won’t necessarily be a fully fledged example of the series. The only restriction for staff is to leave cell phones and cameras at home.

Press and the general public will have to wait to find out when the official presentation will take place. Reports are that this will be in Los Angeles (November 2008) or Detroit (January 2009), although some rumours about a Paris presentation in October are still floating around.

The car won’t be commercially available for some time yet, though, as the Volt will appear on the road at the end of 2010. Patience…
