I mean look at that cheese grater, wouldn’t a lightening badge just set that off! I say toss it on the Volt, the Bolt, the upcoming Jolt sportscar, and the 4-door coupe SUV that will be named the Dolt! Boom, instant GM electric subbrand for the US! They can even spin it off into a Tesla fighting brand called...hmmm, not Opel, that would be confusing...how about Oldsmobile! Then for the Opel versions, put a bowtie on the them since electricity is some fancy Iggy tech. They can call that subbrand...Saturn because planetary gears are a still thing, right! Hmm, but the UK needs something for Vauxhall. How about...Hummer! You know, for the sound the cars make and that thing you still won’t be getting in the backseat. Gotta needlessly swap badges to confuse the market, right babe?!

Not sure about the names, but the badge would definitely be fitting

Using the Opel badge is not a bad idea at all.

Badge would be fantastically appropriate.
I agree purely on that basis.

Not a bad idea, but then all the Real People™ (totally not actors) couldn’t tell it was a chevrolet.

While the logo would be fitting for electric vehicles, we don’t need yet another GM brand in the US.

Well Cadillac is offering to buyout 40% of its dealers which shows they are trying to go for Porsche levels of near-exclusivity by 2025 which is the same space Jaguar and Maserati are aiming for. Plus there’s plenty of room for an all electric brand besides Tesla to exist in the market.

Every time I see this Volt, I keep picturing a pair of Acura pliers on it.
