With last week's buzz from the 2007 North American International Auto Show press preview, LearningAndLife.com advises sales professionals to go fuel-efficient instead of setting their hopes on electric. The electric concept Chevrolet Volt is three to five years away from production, and as currently designed it isn't practical for most sales professionals. However, tried-and-true fuel-efficient models could save sales professionals a lot of money compared to other vehicles. LearningAndLife.com reviews some of several fuel-efficient models that can now be grabbed for last year's prices.
(PRWEB) January 17, 2007 — Although the Chevrolet Volt caused a stir this week at the 2007 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) press preview, LearningAndLife.com advises sales professionals to consider fuel-efficient vehicles instead. In addition to not being currently available, the electric concept Chevrolet Volt isn't practical for most sales professionals. LearningAndLife.com–an online resource featuring career tips, educational advice, and school listings– reviews currently available fuel-efficient cars and weighs their benefits in "Fuel Efficient Cars Can Save Your Sales Business Money" (http://www.learningandlife.com/business-careers/fuel-efficient-cars-can-save-your-sales-business-money.php).
The big news at the 2007 North American International Auto Show press preview centered on a new concept car produced by General Motors. The Chevrolet Volt is powered by a lithium ion battery that has a range of 40 city miles after a six-hour charge from a regular household electrical outlet.
However, most salespeople drive almost twice that distance, making a hybrid or other fuel-efficient vehicle more practical in concept. LearningAndLife.com's article, "Fuel Efficient Cars Can Save Your Sales Business Money" offers an overview of four different fuel-efficient cars that are currently on the market and are affordable: the Honda Insight, the Toyota Prius, the Volkswagen Golf TDI, and the Honda Civic HX. The article then reviews the cars in terms of:
- Gas mileage
- Number of seats
- Reliability
- Handling power
One difference, though, is that evangelical preacher Max Lucado will be preaching at these concerts–apparently aimed at the 20 million people who, according to figures from the Christian Music Trade Association in Nashville, purchase CCM. However, as Martin Marty said in Sightings (October 28), the world of commerce isn’t subject to the same First Amendment strictures as government-sponsored institutions and events. “GM has a perfect right to do this…. It’s all legal.”
