2012 Chevy Volt. Electric. 4 Door Hatchback on 2040-cars
Clinton, Connecticut, United States

this is not a hybrid, it is an electric vehicle with a gasoline powered engine that turns on when the batteries run down.
you can plug it into almost any household electrical outlet to recharge the batteries ,with the included 115 volt charger, or you can buy a 230 volt charger . charges in about 10 hours with the 115 volt charger , about 4 hours with the 230 volt charger. you can also use the free public 230 volt chargers that many local governments are installing, or pay to use the ones many businesses are installing. either way, electricity is a lot cheaper then gas. I have been averaging 9 kilowatt hours to charge it. averages 30 miles on a charge. average 300 miles a week for $20.00. if you charge it outside in the cold, you get less miles on a charge. that is just a characteristic of batteries, performance goes down in the cold. in the summer, i was getting 38- 40 miles on a charge. so i would guess, if you charge it in a garage, you will also get 38-40 miles. I am selling it because it is not working out for me. I drive 50 miles one way to work ,so about half of the time i am on gas and i am not saving anything. if you only drive it 30 miles a day, the gas engine never comes on and you never buy gas. I am the second owner. (EDIT) as far as i know, i am the second owner. The auotcheck report says I am the only owner and that it was owned by several dealers, but apparently never sold. the report also does not show anything after i bought it. about 70,000 miles left on the drive batteries warranty. remote start. you can also remote start it from anywhere with ONSTAR and a cell phone. key less , push button start. manual key back up, in case the key fob dies. back up camera, parking collision avoidance alarms,bluetooth. most climate, radio and bluetooth controls are display screen and touch screen. new tires. just got serviced at the chevy dealer. nothing wrong with it. nothing broken. just normal scratches. I have a loan on it, so buyer will have to wait for lien holder to release the title. you can take the car as soon as you pay for it, but it might be a few days for the lien holder to send me the title. these cars sell for $40 -50,000.00 new, so i think it is worth the asking price. you can get one with a cheaper sticker price at a dealer, but i doubt you will drive it off the lot for that price. if you dont like the price, make me an offer. no shipping. if you are out of the area you will have to make your own shipping arrangements. I drive to Norwich area almost every afternoon, so if you live along the way, i can stop by for you to see it and test drive it. I am still driving the car, so i cant give actual mileage . as of today, 31,010. I am estimating it will be around 32,000 during this listing. please dont waste my time with payment scams, I have heard them all. |

2016 Chevy Volt rated at 106 MPGe, 53 miles of pure EV range
Tue, Aug 4 2015Following a string of rumors, Chevrolet and the Environmental Protection Agency have released official fuel economy numbers for the second-generation Volt. As was reported earlier today, the new and improved hybrid will cover 53 miles on pure electric power. As Chevy tells it, first-gen Volt owners cover about 80 percent of their mileage on EV power alone, so the 40-percent increase from the second-gen should lead to an even bigger reduction in gas-powered Volt mileage. Chevy expects some 90 percent of mileage to come from a plug with its new 2016 model. This newfound EV range comes thanks to the 2016 Volt's 18.4-kilowatt hour lithium-ion battery. Rated at 106 MPGe by the feds – exactly what was promised by a June leak – the 2016 Volt improves nicely on the current model's 17.1-kWh, 98-MPGe battery back. There's also a marked improvement when relying on the gas-powered on-board generator. The 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine will happily run on regular fuel and return a still-impressive 42 miles per gallon combined rating once the battery's state of charge is depleted. Expect the freeway to cruise to be even better, although Chevy isn't ready to say by how much. Fully charged and with a full tank, drivers should expect to cover 420 miles, a 40-mile improvement over the current model. Scroll down for the official press release from Chevrolet Related Video: The Results Are In: More Range for the 2016 Volt EPA-estimated pure electric range is 53 miles DETROIT – The 2016 Volt is engineered to offer customers more of what they want: range, range and more range. The Volt's all-new second-generation Voltec extended range electric propulsion system delivers 53 miles of pure EV range, based on EPA testing. That is nearly a 40-percent improvement over the first generation Volt. Chevrolet expects many next-generation Volt owners will use power solely from their battery for more than 90 percent of trips. Today, Volt owners use battery power on 80 percent of their trips. This means that the average Volt owner may expect to travel well over 1,000 miles between gas fill ups, if they charge regularly. For the first 53 miles, the Volt can drive gas and tailpipe-emissions free using a full charge of electricity stored in its new 18.4-kWh lithium-ion battery, which is rated at a combined 106 MPGe, or gasoline equivalent. When the Volt's battery runs low, a gas-powered generator seamlessly operates to extend the driving range for a total of 420 miles on a full tank.
Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
Chevy Corvette gets Valet Mode with Performance Data Recorder [w/video]
Mon, 18 Aug 2014For the 2015-model-year, Chevrolet introduces Valet Mode for the Corvette, an enhancement to the Performance Data Recorder (PDR) already available and to your peace of mind. The PDR already captures 720p HD video with a windshield-mounted camera, records interior audio with a cabin microphone and gathers telemetry data using GPS, saving the data to an SD card in the glovebox. You can then watch your track-day antics with various information overlays on the center console screen.
Valet Mode will let you hit 'Replay' when your car gets pulled up front smelling vaguely of fricasseed clutch. Turned on by entering a four-digit code, it also locks the interior storage spaces and turns off the infotainment system. It can't be turned off until the code is re-entered. There's a press release below with more information as well as a video that explains how it works, with the obligatory dig at the 'Vette's biggest foe.
