A123 is the current leader to be GM's battery supplier for the Volt. Shocking ( horrible pun ). "Buy a Volt, get fried by A123?"

Enough mud.. Stupid article.
Well kdh, if you had actually READ the article, you would know that the A123 battery was not the cause of the fire. In fact, it only sustained minor damage from it and was still functional.

There was little damage to the A123-manufactured lithium-ion battery pack which suggests that some other hybrid component could have been the cause of the fire and subsequent explosion -- this could be somewhat of a relief to many who still express reservations with regards to installing numerous lithium-ion cells in passenger vehicles.
