This week, GM is showing off a new concept car called the Cadillac Converj.  It is a luxury electric car that runs on the same battery as the new Chevy Volt, GM’s first mass-produced electric car which is currently in the works.

According to EV World:

  • While the Converj is largely a styling exercise to demonstrate applications of the Voltec drive beyond the Chevy Volt, General Motors executives stressed that should public interest warrant, they could commit to production of the vehicle.

Many environmentalists have questioned Detroit’s commitment to electric cars.  Do you think the Converj is an example of innovation or speculation?  Discuss below.
