The Volt does not need supercharger technology. The Volt has a range extender engine that eliminates the need for rapid charging on long trips.

Supercharger technology is appropriate for BEV's but not needed for EREV's.

GM could easily install they network on over 4000 GM dealerships. Many advantages aside from the sheer number and lower costs the big one for me would they would be on "private property" and most likely not subject from being "ICE'd".
GM does not "own" the GM dealerships any more than a shopping mall. GM dealerships are independently owned and operated.

Nor are dealerships always located in convenient areas for charging. For example dealerships are often not located near shopping or restaurant locations.

Frankly... The whole point for eh Volt is that I don't have to stop anywhere but my own garage to charge. I simply don't need fast charging capability because the Volt has a range extender for the rare occurrences I need more range.
