GM's Got Some Explaining to Do

And, on the subject of plug-in hybrids, GM's got some explaining to do—at least to one 15-year-old car enthusiast I know in Michigan.

When he read about GM's plan for the plug-in hybrid, his immediate reaction was: will its performance be comparable to gas-powered cars? how much will it cost in electric bills to re-charge it? how long will recharging take? how will it be re-charged on a cross-country trip? and where's the electricity to charge it coming from; that is, what kind of power-generation plant?

I suspect many others have these same questions.
