::Your reference is completely out of date. A selective use of math and assuming only Chevy Volts will use the batteries manufactured at the subsidized plants is very disingenuous. The Hamtramck plant also manufactures the Malibu. Where are these facts included in the math? Nowhere of course. Using MCC’s dubious math, selective reasoning and the increase in Volt sales, each car is now subsidized at $27,000. And this number itself is still completely inane. I’ll cut them some slack concerning the past government ownership of GM, but this doesn’t excuse anyone from using this dated reference to trash the Volt.--[[User:NormaN|NormaN]] 19:37, 3 February 2014 (EST)

Took SamHB’s advice and corrected the paragraph in question to include references. Hopefully everyone will be satisfied.
