Volt combines the efficiency of an electric car with the longrange capabilities of a traditional gasoline vehicle. The Volt has an EPA-estimated gas-free driving range of 38 miles from electricity stored in its 16-kWh lithium-ion battery (actual range varies with conditions). When the electric range of 38 miles has been reached and the Volt’s battery runs low, an onboard back-up gas generator seamlessly engages to produce electricity that will extend Volt’s driving range for another 344 miles, making for a total combined driving range of 380 miles on a full charge and a full tank of gas2. AWESOME DRIVING EXPERIENCE Whether powered by the battery or by the quiet generator, the driving experience is the same — exceptional. Volt is quiet, quick off the line and very smooth, with a premium feel and a 100-mph top-end speed. UNPRECEDENTED DIGITAL CONNECTIVITY With two 7-inch diagonal LCD screens, OnStar®3 standard for 3 years, smartphone apps4, a unique owner site, a monthly Volt diagnostic email and specialized Volt Customer Advisors when away from the vehicle, Volt provides an ownership experience unlike any other.

Its 273 lb.-ft. of torque is available instantly and accelerates zero-to-60 in less than nine seconds with a top speed of up to 100 mph. Volt is also surprisingly quiet. In fact, the electric propulsion was so quiet that normal wind and road noise were more noticeable. So, engineers worked to make the Volt interior even quieter by isolating sounds and sealing them out. And with its lower center of gravity and tight-handling suspension, Volt provides confident control and exciting response at any speed.

Volt Leadership
The Volt gives buyers the choice of gas-free electric operation for approximately 38 miles (based on EPA estimates), and the ability to continue driving with the help of a gas-powered onboard generator. Chevrolet recently surveyed Volt owners and found they fill up, on average, once a month, travelling more than 900 miles between gas station visits1. Volt owners have traveled more than 20 million miles, with roughly two-thirds of those miles powered by electricity since the vehicle launched late last year.
