General Motors trims 2016 Volt plug-in hybrid car price by nearly $1,200 to $33,995
– canadianbusiness.com
DETROIT – General Motors is knocking nearly $1,200 off the price of the 2016 Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid car.
The company says the new Volt will start at $33,995 including shipping when it goes on sale in the fall. The current version costs $35,170.
Prices do not include a $7,500 federal electric car tax credit.
The new Volt can go about 50 miles on battery power before a gasoline generator takes over. The current car goes about 38 miles on its battery.
GM says it can reduce the price because lithium-ion battery and other costs are coming down.
Sales of Volts and other battery-powered vehicles have suffered with gasoline prices nationwide averaging $2.60 per gallon. Through April, Volt sales are down 46 per cent to 2,779.

AmEx to launch its loyalty program, Plenti, Monday; Enterprise Rent-A-Car to join
– canadianbusiness.com
NEW YORK, N.Y. – American Express will roll out a new loyalty program, Plenti, on Monday, allowing U.S. shoppers for the first time to earn rewards points through a variety of purchases, from paying a phone bill to filling up at the pump.
Unlike other loyalty programs, such as frequent flyer plans, Plenti isn’t tied to a single company or credit card issuer. Users can join for free and don’t have to be American Express members.
Customers will be able to accumulate points through purchases at Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Rite Aid, Macy’s and a number of other companies, which can then be used for discounts at any participating vendor. Plenti points built up by buying gas or a Nationwide insurance policy, for example, could earn discounts on an electric bill from Direct Energy or milk from Rite Aid.
“It will really be the first time where U.S. consumers, on a single program, can take the rewards they’ve earned in one industry and take it to another,” said Abeer Bhatia, chief executive of US Loyalty at American Express…
