    Anyone know the new Volt's kWh/100 mile rating yet. I guess it's an EPA rating right?

    The released rating is in mpge at 102. Back calculating it comes to about 33.5kWh/100 mile. Current one is 35kWh/100mile.

    Yup. The numbers are rounded so it's hard to know at what point the actual more precise internal testing number rounds up or down.

    My guess is that it will show up as 33 on the window sticker.
