2010 Chevrolet Volt MPV5 Concept

Are you waiting? The Chevrolet Volt next branch in GM's electrified family tree will be a five-seat crossover, potentially called the Chevrolet Amp. Using the same basic architecture, engine, motor and batteries from the Volt, a production Amp would help GM spread its substantial Voltec development costs over more than one model.

This special plan’s GM for the Detroit Auto Show in January. Thanks to the sleuth work of the detectives at Car and Driver, may be closer than ever to seeing the vehicle become a reality. Combined with the unveiling of the Chevrolet Volt MPV5 Concept at the 2010 Beijing Motor Show, there's a good chance that a battery-operated Crossover will grace Detroit with its presence next month.
