Chevy Volt vs. Nissan LEAF Video

There's a lot of controversy comparing the Nissan LEAF to the Chevy Volt, but it all has to do with whether or not the Volt is truly an electric car, or whether it's a hybrid. But let's set their powertrains aside for the moment. John McElroy just got a chance to test drive both cars, back to back, and here's his impression of what the they're like.

@TheSweettooth95 also, please throw away that "electric junk" you are? posting comments from... spare us all the idiocy of your posts.

@TheSweettooth95 ...
@TheSweettooth95 choosing to remain ignorant crosses the line into stupidity. do some research and realize there are upsides and downsides to every tech... from the ICE to the electric motor. you CAN change the sound of an electric car... with more options than an ICE. now... lets see you argue that you can produce an internal combustion engine that will accelerate you to 60 in under 6 seconds AND? be whisper quiet in a residential area. i didn't think so. STFU + RTFM

@oceanburank first off, it's a ford, not a GM. second off, that was back in the day when all cars had simple engines and simple technologies that lasted forever--and when forever ran out you could fix them with a hammer. most cars? today have s**t reliability in comparison.

@dave777blaster really? that's why my 2004 silverado is still chugging along and? in very good condition with over 170,000 miles. my 98 camaro z28 would still be on the road if I hadn't abused the hell out of it at the track. time to take a look again at the real facts, and not just perception.
