"The new battery is designed to provide the Volt with a 40-mile pure electric range. Known as a “plug-in hybrid,” the Volt will use the battery to power electric motors that drive its front wheels. GM has said the Volt will use an engine-generator set to recharge its lithium-ion battery beyond the initial 40 miles. Lithium-ion is considered the battery of choice for the coming generation of plug-in hybrids because it packs greater energy density than lead-acid or other battery alternatives."
