Great car for the driver, not a passenger car

Fun car to drive. Quick and responsive for a hybrid. Solid feel, unlike my 2012 Prius. When running on gas, I routinely get 40-MPG. When front seats are moved fully to the rear, which is how I drive, rear leg room is virtually non-existent at about 3-4 inches. Rear seats exist for marketing reasons only and in most circumstances are unusable. Touch sensitive buttons on panel are too sensitive. Some of the buttons have small bumps below them implying that they can be found by touch, but this just results in other buttons being "pressed" accidentally. The result is that the driver must take eyes off the road to find the desired button, creating an unsafe situation

First US - Built car I have purchased since 1975. Great ride, very comfortable, good vision, just a little tight vision to the side/rear like most cars, mirrors take care of that problem; would like the mirrors like Fords have. Smooth shifting, no interior noise , very quick acceleration and braking. Handles well and sticks to the road, very predictable where it's heading. Instrumentation is logical and easy to reach while driving. Could use additional glovebox./storage. Rear seating may be a little tight for larger adults, front seats have massive room and great headroom. I do not have the navigation system so no real rating. At 42K miles no repairs so far. Too bad Chevy will stop building in 2020; (Very short-sighted on their part - this beats anything out there with the on-board charging) I would plan to replace this one at 100K miles if available. Currently has 46K mile with no issues - only routine maintenance. Will NOT purchase a Ford product, GM better get their act together and bring back the Volt, Plug-in car

Hands down, the best car I've ever owned

Let me start by saying i use these reviews for every car I've ever bought, or even think about buying. Owners opinion is everything. I have had dozens and dozens of cars in my life. Fords, Toyotas, Volvos, several Lexus', and many others. This Chevy Volt is absolutely the best car I've ever had. Everyone who sees it or rides in it is blown away it's a Chevrolet. First off, it's not the sportiest car I've had. It's not the most utilitarian car I've had. However, it is the most practical, and efficient car I've had. Obviously, it's biggest draw is the fact it can 100% run on electricity. Yes, for 25-35 miles, you don't use any fuel...unless you want to. The car will allow you to "hold" the electricity for when you think it's use is most warranted. I love that. So not only is there no range anxiety, you also have the option to use the battery when you choose to. This is great in mid-west winter when I want to warm my engine up for immediate heat. It also is great if I plan on all interstate/freeway driving. I hold it during those times will i know i will be going less than 55mph for getting the most fulfillment out of the battery. The Volt i have is the "premium" or whatever edition has all the options. This isn't an absolute necessity, but it does prove to have many/more options than any luxury car I've owned. Heated seats, navigation, backup camera, etc. The only issue I've dealt with as far as maintenance: When I bought the car it wouldn't charge. Now this was a big deal when i discovered it. The dealership I bought it from told me it charged and pretended to charge it. At the time, i knew nothing about electric cars so I thought they had charged it. I did take it to a dealer for diagnosis after buying it. They said the charge port was broken and that i needed a new one. They quoted me at $650. I looked up how to do it myself and discovered it was about a 10 minute job and a $120 part. So my advice, always perform do-diligence when it comes to auto repairs. I am by no means a mechanic and knocked it out in about 4 minutes. In closing, if you're on the fence about a Volt....buy it. It is a great entryway into electric vehicles without fully committing to giving up fuel completely. Chevy hit this one out of the park and it's a shame it wasn't marketed better as they quit making Volts in 2019. Highly Highly recommend this vehicle

When running on battery power, this car is more fun to drive than my Mustang. Extra drive modes are very helpful. The one I bought has a neat ceramic white interior that gives it a unique look. Would be nice to have a middle rear seat, though--the Gen. 1 volts only seat four (if you need a full rear seat, look for 2016 and up). I charge it overnight, and the 40-mile range is enough for a day or two. Had an 18-mile commute, and went for months without touching gas. However, I have to say that the acceleration is lackluster when running on gas. For me, the Volt has been great. I was involved in a highway accident with it, and I walked away just fine, plus it held up like a champ and was repairable (and no, there was absolutely no change with the battery.) I'd recommend the Volt over and over again, and I'm honestly so sad that they're being discontinued!

This is amazing. I have put 60,000 miles on this car in 6 years and only used 110 gallons of gas. The only service it has needed is an oil change once a year and a free tire rotation twice a year. Great car fun to drive. Love not using gas. The best part of the car is that after all this time it is still fun to drive! I love how quiet it is. Family members say 'it’s like driving in the future‘. I have moved to Europe and I am really enjoying how fast it charges. I go to work and back with an occasional stop somewhere and don’t use gas! It really was a car ahead of its time. Only now do cars start to feel similar, but still they lack the milage ability of this one.
