I’ve owned 3 Volts and an ELR. They are fantastic vehicles and I’ve had to explain how they worked to hundreds of people.

I bought a 2014 Volt used in 2016. It has been great so far. Everything that I have read about it speaks to 1st gen Lexus LS/1970s Mercedes Benz levels of over-engineering. The only things I’m really worried about are the switch gear and such shared with other GM vehicles. We have put over 50k miles on it in a little…
One of the very few examples of a hybrid done correctly. If I still had a daily commute, I would probably get one.
Typical boneheaded GM move.
This is exactly right! It’s almost like the Volt is GM’s step kid. The trucks, CUVs, and SUVs are their “real” kids and GM goes to all their soccer games and buys them ice cream after. The Volt and even the Bolt are their kids from the new marriage.
Crap! They were on my list as a possible next vehicle.
Same with me. My Volt is the best car I have ever owned. It is by far the best vehicle to go from point A to point B, especially in town. People who ask me about it have no idea how it works / what it does and when I explain it most are simply blown away. If GM would build a truck with the same type of technology I…
My 2015 Volt has been an awesome vehicle.The problem with it is that the general population has no understanding of what makes it tick and some even seem to resent the presence of an electric car making their ICE vehicle appear ancient.And I forever have to answer the question asked “You mean it only goes 40 miles on…
Volt shares the Cruze platform and the engine is the same family as the 1.5t.
Nah... just plug it in and recharge the batteries!
I had the same experience with a 1st gen Volt. It turned out to be my gateway drug for a pure EV. An e-golf in my case.
Totally agree. It’s one of the best cars they build.
I didn’t like the Volt at first but it grew on me as they made revisions. Our company uses them as our company cars and they’ve always been great at eating up the miles with relatively little issue. Good, perhaps underrated, cars.
They would have to be as dumb as Ford to kill the Volt. Again: GAS INSNT GOING TO BE CHEAP FOREVER. The Volt would be essential and missed.
That’s a bit surprising. Around here I see a ton of these things. I suppose New England buys a disproportionate number of them.
Not a lawyer. I think the term is “gross negligence”. The contract doesn’t protect the shop because their action of the employee (illegal u-turn) is clearly “grossly negligent”.
It’s not impossible because:
I’m doubtful that they can do this in the US. And even more doubtful that they can hit that price AND their target range. Maybe the low cost one will have a smaller battery pack.
This post is spot on. I’m a HUGE Diablo fan, I grew up with the franchise and D2 remains one of my favorite games of all time. I got D3 on launch and was disappointed, came back after they fixed the loot table, and after something like 800 hours I decided the game is just fundamentally broken at it’s core and moved on…
Your re-skin argument is bullshit. Just because a game plays familar does not mean it is a re-skin. You dumbasses will eat anything up that is posted on Reddit.
