It ultimately will have a lot to do with the battery charge.

The Volt will be able to get up to 40 miles on a battery charge, and then the gas engine will kick in and recharge the battery. The battery can also be charged by plugging it in for an eight hour period. They are scheduled to be released it in 2011.
