The Chevrolet Volt, of all the cars launched during 2011, is most likey to become a collectible vehicle n the years to come, according to the Friends of the National Automotive History Collection.
Members of the organization, which supports theDetroit Public Library's Automotive History Collection,, vote annually to predict the “Collectible Vehicle of the Future” from each year’s new North American-built cars and trucks.  The Volt was selected from 23 all-new vehicles launched in 2011.
“This selection is unique among all the ’Vehicle of the Year’ awards, because it is selected by ’car buffs’ who know what future collectors will value. We asked our members to predict which of this year’s new vehicles will turn heads in the Woodward Cruise of 2036,”said Charles K. Hyde, chairman of the NAHC Board of Trustees. Cristi Landy, Volt marketing director, said, “Chevrolet is delighted for this recognition from the NAHC friends for the Volt’s breakthrough technology and its role in changing the landscape of the automotive industry.” Last year's winner was the Chevrolet Camaro.
