Volt Consumers Main Concerns

Volt Consumers Main Concerns


As the new electric car just released, Volt has already received a lot of good review and made impressive achievement. It has been awarded as Green Car of the Year, for using the electric technology in a way to reduce gas emission. When consumers are given the opportunity to test this vehicle during 12 cities tour, most of them gave positive review and feedback. A lot of them stated that this car gives a solid, strong, and comfortable feeling in driving experience while at the same time reducing the gas emission, making the consumers feel proud to be able to do something worthy for the environment. Another good point of this car is that you don’t need to worry about running out of electricity, because when it does, additional generator machine will replace the run out battery to ensure you have a safe and comfy trip.


Another competitor using almost the same technology a Volt is the Nissan Leaf. The difference is that Leaf runs completely on batteries and has no back-up engine. Still the main concerns from the consumers are about the recharge station and the price. Volt is still way too expensive and they also worry about not being able to recharge the car without sufficient number of station available.

The New Beetle from VW


I’m always excited when talking about VW Beetle. Aside from the look that is always unique and noticeable and also adorable, it’s also quite a tough ride. Whenever I see a small and compact car on the street, with the hump frog-like design and the cute color available, I can always tell that it’s a beetle, even from a far. Beetle doesn’t only offer cute design, but you can have a sporty one too, if you like. Of course still with that unique beetle design. It won’t be a beetle if it doesn’t have that particular unique design.


Apparently I’m not the only one who adores beetle very much. Oprah Winfrey is also a big fan of this cute car. She gave away a new beetle to her 275 audience, each of them getting a new beetle. Oh how much I wish I had been there!


VW company has used the show to give preview of its upcoming car, teasing its beetle fans.  The car is said to have hybrid, gasoline, diesel, and also convertible models with a style of a front-wheel. It will also be equipped with sport seats, dual exhaust system, bright lighting, and wheels of 19 inch in measure.

When talking about Mercedes-Benz, its’ main strength is in the design. Mercedes always has this look for classy, timeless, and elegant style, which are suitable for young and old target consumers. But under the lead of Gordon Wagener, the design has slight changed, offering a better look especially for younger drivers.


The change actually began in 2007 with the new generation of C class, and went on with the E class and E class coupe in 2009, continued to the SLS sports car with two doors launched in May 2009.

The consumers are very much attracted to the sporty-look design, offering a younger look and a fresher style. That’s why their new guiding theme for their product is the sporty and young look. The design has also cause a bit of change in design creation, where executives are shown the vehicle before the final decision about the design is made. Consumers comments and reviews are also put into consideration, providing that the company will only produce what the market wants.
