The four-door sedan will deliver 40 miles on a charge; a small gasoline engine will recharge the battery as it approaches depletion, extending its range by as much as 200 miles. It will appear in Europe next year as the Opel Ampera and in Australia as the Holden Volt in 2012. The car is expected to cost around $40,000.
