    The document compares the costs of owning a Chevrolet Volt electric vehicle versus an average gasoline-powered car under current gas prices and a potential future "oil spike" scenario. It shows that the upfront cost of the Volt is $12,500 more than the average car but the Volt is cheaper to operate, with break-even points of 115,741 miles under current gas prices and 53,419 miles if gas prices rise to $6.50 per gallon.
