GM Holding Advanced Technology Briefing Today with Blogcast, Chat; New Battery Lab
08 June 2009
GM is holding an Advanced Technology Briefing today from 8am to 1pm EDT, and is offering a blogcast of the event, which begins with a Volt/Voltec mule drive prior to an announcement.
One of GM’s subject matter experts (SME) in the area will be available from approximately 8:45-9:30 am for a live chat, with the announcement and press conference to follow.
The live content and chat access will be available on the GM FastLane blog site or via the window below.
Some highlights I noticed:
"We are already working on the second generation battery and getting the same 40 miles out of a battery pack that is half the size" (suggests 100% SOC utilisation to me)
"cell chemistries in gen II will be different"
Looks like Gen2 is the one to get excited about.

Good progress. For an old dog.
