GM had predicted that there would be 45,000 sales of Volts this year. Nissan had predicted sales of the leaf at 20,000. Yet, during the first six months, only 8,817 were sold. 20 percent are being sold in California in part because of benefits such as being able to drive in the carpool lanes with only one person in the car. But, even if the Volt sales are horrible, the Volt is outselling the all-electric Nissan Leaf by more than 3 to 1.
