The Cars.com driver was a little banged up in the incident. Though every car owner hopes it never happens, we knew an accident would be a possibility, as it is every time anyone gets behind the wheel. The upside is we get to answer the kinds of questions that a potential Volt buyer might have — specifically, how much does it cost to repair body damage on a plug-in car?
We’ll let you know how long it takes to get the Volt back into driving shape. In the meantime, keep an eye on www.cars.com/green and our Twitter feed, @CarsComGreen, for reports on the Volt and our ongoing experience with the Nissan Leaf.
