OVERVIEW

Get plugged in.

Say hello to Volt, Chevrolet's electric vehicle that can use gas (but only if you need to).
Volt will take you wherever you need to go - whether it's to the corner store or on a long-distance road trip.

EXTERIOR

Thoughtful efficiency.

By its very nature, Volt is engineered to change the face of transportation as we know it.
Nearly every component of Volt has been selected to get the most out of every charge, including:

  • Aerodynamics that maximize the distance per charge and miles per gallon of fuel
  • A closed grille and aerodynamic back edges that contribute to its fuel efficiency(3)
  • Energy-efficient Bose® Sound System
  • Goodyear Assurance Fuel Max tires

INTERIOR

The dashboard reimagined.

Volt has two LCD screens that display speed, battery power, range to recharge or re-fill as well as an efficiency gauge that gives you real-time feedback.
On the center console you'll find a seven-inch diagonal high-resolution screen with touch-sensitive control that helps you get the most out of your Volt.

PERFORMANCE

Power from an exceptional battery.

The Volt battery has gone through numerous environment-specific tests, including corrosion and hot- and cold-weather testing and the results were so promising that the 16-kWh lithium-ion battery pack is backed by a 100,000-mile/8-year limited warranty(4). Here are a few more notes on the battery:

  • Volt offers an EPA-estimated 35 miles of initial EV range offering a gas-free and tailpipe emissions-free commute for about $1.50 of electricity per day
  • When the battery is depleted, a small, quiet onboard gas generator creates electricity that powers your Volt as you drive for hundreds of additional miles
  • Lithium-ion cells outperform nickel-metal hydride cells (found in today's hybrid vehicles) in terms of life cycle
  • A liquid thermal cooling and heating system keeps the battery at a comfortable temperature as it's being charged and discharged
Here are a few more advantages
  • Commute gas-free on electricity(3) for an average of $1.50 a day
  • Can be set to charge during off-peak hours for greater savings
  • Your Volt will be fully charged in about 10 hours, depending on climate, with standard 120-volt line, or as little as 4 hours using a dedicated 240-volt line
  • Some Volt owners may qualify for tax rebates on an SPX Service Solutions - installed charging unit

Innovation everywhere

Volt offers the performance and forward-thinking you've come to expect from Chevrolet. Take a look:

  • Instant, smooth and seamless torque right at the wheels
  • Regenerative braking captures the energy from forward motion that would otherwise be lost when the car slows or stops and then converts it into electricity, helping make Volt even more efficient to drive
  • On the test track, Volt reached a top speed of 100 mph
  • Free of the typical noise of the internal combustion engine, Volt offers a quiet, relaxing ride at any speed

SAFETY

Making the future safer.

Volt drivers and passengers will be wrapped in a cocoon of standard safety.
With eight air bags(5) ready to deploy in an emergency, it's obvious safety is of the highest priority.
Joining this built-in safety is an unprecedented five-year subscription to OnStar®(6) Directions and Connections® including Automatic Crash Response.
In the event of a collision, built-in sensors can automatically alert an OnStar Advisor, who is immediately connected into your vehicle to see if you need help sent to your exact location - even if you can't respond.

TECHNOLOGY

Pick your mode.

The Volt has been programmed with three unique driving modes to accommodate different driving styles.
Normal mode is the most efficient setting that takes the electricity and focuses it on operating the electric drive.
Sport mode sacrifices a small amount of efficiency for more responsive acceleration, and Mountain mode makes sure the battery has a bigger energy reserve for driving up long, steep inclines.
