Despite being a "production" design, these are still one-off, pre-production design prototypes, and the actual car in 2011 will be different. The wheels definitely won't be 18s, as they are now.

That would be a waste of electricity.

LEDs barely use electricity, but I could see using an uber-high reflective material for the bolt instead.

They are 17's right now, and I hope they stay.

I might have to become a priuschat.com member so that I can correct and explain some of their Volt "Facts"
