How do you know how much it weighs? I haven't seen weight figures........

0-60 times are aimed at roughly 8-9 seconds or so I believe I have read. But, that is because the Volt isn't aimed to be a speedster like the Tesla. I was just saying that electric motors make all there torque as soon as you hit the accelerator. So it isn't torqueless, just not aimed for performance.
