I fall into the category of folks who traded in their Prius for the Volt. I evaluated my driving needs (length of daily trips and number of long trips annually), and the Volt's daily electric range easily compensated for the mpg I would achieve when using the range extender on long trips. Three years with the Volt I'm averaging 133 mpg overall.
Hats off to Chevy for getting in the game; too bad Toyota didn't show up.
