About Chevrolet Volt

The Chevrolet Volt remains one of the best plug-in hybrids on the market, with impressive all-electric range and everyday practicality. Its understated styling doesn't draw attention the way some electrified alternatives do (such as the Toyota Prius or the Toyota Prius Prime), but instead assimilates with mainstream cars. Unlike many plug-in hybrids that have about 20 miles or less of electric-only range, the Volt can travel up to 53 miles before its gasoline engine fires up. The Chevy also boasts a satisfying driving experience, with prompt acceleration and solid handling. While the hybrid hatchback has some flaws—such as a mediocre interior with a cramped back seat—it continues to be an exceptional hybrid and an excellent car.
