2013 Chevrolet Volt Base Hatchback 4-door 1.4l on 2040-cars
Germantown, Tennessee, United States
I bought this 2013 Chevrolet Volt new in October of 2012. It had not been at the Chevrolet dealership long at all and once I acquired it, I have kept it garaged. The miles are currently only 2,576. I drive it in order to keep the cranking battery up and may put a few miles on it showing it but there won’t be many more than that when it is sold. The vehicle has never had any body work or paint work on it and, if you choose to pull one, the car fax will be clean. Since acquiring the vehicle, I have obtained a license as a salesman at a local licensed used car dealer, E-Z Auto, Inc., so that I can sell cars through the dealership on a part time basis. Therefore, there are cars in inventory that are available for me to drive which accounts to a large extent for the low mileage. By selling this car, I will have additional funds available to acquire other cars for inventory since we are allowed to acquire our own vehicles for sale at the dealership. This car will be sold through E-Z Auto which should give you some comfort since the business is licensed and regulated by the State of Tennessee. Also, we can take trades, if you have one, and get you a drive-out tag. There will be no document or administrative fee. I will take care of that myself. If you live in Tennessee, you will have to pay sales tax but if you live in any other state, you will pay any sales tax due in your state when you register the car. The volt stickered for $43,030. In addition to the array of standard equipment, it has the premium package, consisting of leather seats, heated front seats, leather wrapped steering wheel and rear removable armrest. It has enhanced safety package 1 which consists of auto dimming rear view mirror, rear park assist and rear vision camera. The Volt is also equipped with the Bose premium speakers and a cargo net. This vehicle is smoke-free and has never had food or beverages of any kind in it. There haven’t even been any passengers in the car and no pets, either. The only imperfection on the car at all is a small place on the top that was caused by a knot falling out of an oak tree onto the top while I was waiting at a red light. I tried to get it in a picture, but it is so small that I can’t get it to show up. The paint is totally undamaged. EPA states that a charge will provide enough electrical energy to drive the car up to 38 miles. I have never gotten that little. If you look at the picture of the instrument panel, you will see that it will show you the amount of miles that you can expect from it vehicle when it is charged and it is showing 51 miles. This is based on the most recent result. My driving has been entirely city driving and I generally get between 48 and 53 miles on a charge. I drive it as is recommended. To get that result, you will have to do the same. That requires some discipline because the car handles almost sports car like and is quite fast if you choose to accelerate quickly. Volts are probably the most misunderstood vehicles on the market today. When the electrical charge is used up, the vehicle will NOT leave you stranded. Instead, a motor comes on seamlessly and begins to operate a generator which continues to supply power to the electric motor which propels the car. In that mode, the vehicle delivers an EPA estimated mileage of 35 to 4o mpg. You can drive the car as far as you wish in that mode as long as you keep gas in it.

A car writer's year in new vehicles [w/video]
Thu, Dec 18 2014Christmas is only a week away. The New Year is just around the corner. As 2014 draws to a close, I'm not the only one taking stock of the year that's we're almost shut of. Depending on who you are or what you do, the end of the year can bring to mind tax bills, school semesters or scheduling dental appointments. For me, for the last eight or nine years, at least a small part of this transitory time is occupied with recalling the cars I've driven over the preceding 12 months. Since I started writing about and reviewing cars in 2006, I've done an uneven job of tracking every vehicle I've been in, each year. Last year I made a resolution to be better about it, and the result is a spreadsheet with model names, dates, notes and some basic facts and figures. Armed with this basic data and a yen for year-end stories, I figured it would be interesting to parse the figures and quantify my year in cars in a way I'd never done before. The results are, well, they're a little bizarre, honestly. And I think they'll affect how I approach this gig in 2015. {C} My tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015 it'll be as high as 73. Let me give you a tiny bit of background about how automotive journalists typically get cars to test. There are basically two pools of vehicles I drive on a regular basis: media fleet vehicles and those available on "first drive" programs. The latter group is pretty self-explanatory. Journalists are gathered in one location (sometimes local, sometimes far-flung) with a new model(s), there's usually a day of driving, then we report back to you with our impressions. Media fleet vehicles are different. These are distributed to publications and individual journalists far and wide, and the test period goes from a few days to a week or more. Whereas first drives almost always result in a piece of review content, fleet loans only sometimes do. Other times they serve to give context about brands, segments, technology and the like, to editors and writers. So, adding up the loans I've had out of the press fleet and things I've driven at events, my tally for the year is 68 cars, as of this writing. Before the calendar flips to 2015, it'll be as high as 73. At one of the buff books like Car and Driver or Motor Trend, reviewers might rotate through five cars a week, or more. I know that number sounds high, but as best I can tell, it's pretty average for the full-time professionals in this business.
GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production [UPDATE]
Sun, Jan 25 2015UPDATE: A previous version of this story indicated that Orion Assembly would be idled for seven weeks, from February 16 through April 6. This was incorrect. The factory will instead only be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6. The story has been edited to reflect this. General Motors has announced that the factory responsible for the Buick Verano and Chevrolet Sonic will be idled for the weeks of February 16 and April 6, with blame being placed on excess supply. The Orion Assembly plant, about 45 minutes north of GM's Renaissance Center headquarters, employs about 1,800 people, but they'll be given a pair of furloughs as inventories of the sub-compact Sonic and premium compact Verano reach 127 days and 84 days, respectively. That works out to 26,600 Chevys and 9,800 Buicks waiting for buyers. According to Automotive News, the compact Chevy sales bested the industry average in 2014, jumping up nine percent versus the the overall segment's eight-percent gain, while the Buick sedan's sales were down four percent. When asked about the shutdown, a GM spokesman told AN that it will "build to market demand," while also pointing out that the company did not comment on production plans.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit
Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.
