Glad to hear your VOLT's safety system protected you so nicely. Getting hit from the side and then hitting a pole was not a simple crash. They do live up to their 5 star rating.

I like the hatch on the VOLT as it makes it more practical for hauling a lot of things that I could get in a trunck like the Fusion. I would rather have the performance of the VOLT and the much...

25 cents an hour for Level2.

I use the voice commands mostly for changing the radio band or selecting a particular station (XM). I also use the virtual advisor for downloading pre-loaded destinations for uploading to the nav...

Well the ICE community might clap. However for my last 900 miles in the VOLT I used .19 gallons, so keep on trying ICE and Diesel owners and engineers. And I "fill up" in a clean garage with no messy...

gilzapanta, you may just find with that smile on your face after every drive that your wife will take the FOB to the VOLT and you will be anxiously waiting for the 2nd gen so you can have your...

NIce story and the VOLT is a very sensible vehicle with it's cost to operate, yet it is so fun to drive too and you cannot find that combination with any ICE car.

I totally agree....

Nice job to migrate to two VOLTS. I have had SUV's in the past and thought about the 1% of the time convenience of their use. I have found that the VOLT carries much more than I would have thought,...

Actually I did not have a full tank, I used a little fuel a couple weeks ago. So my total range is often more like 408ish in the summer with a full tank (which I rarely keep a full tank, more like...

While I have had several over 50 EV mile trips in my two years of ownership, my personal best was 56.3, my highest EER was 49. Since I do not have a significant net downhill elevation change when my...

I have owned my VOLT for two years now and one word sums it up and that word is – AWESOME! And THAT is an understatement!

My VOLT may be two years old now but it still delivers a smile very day,...

Joshua, We all know the feeling:) AND after two years of ownership I still look forward to driving the VOLT. So much fun to drive and costs so little. The fun of driving is back with a VOLT!

So be...

I too am an original VOLT owner 2011 and only use the 120v charger that is provided with the car and I use it every day. I, like tboult stated, did have it replaced during the body structure...

I even wash the car driveway with it plugged in and never had a problem. I do not try to flood the connection while plugged in with the hose but just use some care not to spray it too much as I wash...

Pete okay that you cannot share such info. I guess maybe I can figure out some general pack to pack interface from some of the released pics of the battery. Thanks for sharing what you can always.

Pete Foss, sorry let me try again -


What is the seal/mechanisim that transports the cooling fluid between cell packs (cell pack to adjacent cell pack)? So from one cell pack to another I...

Pete Foss - So what is the interface between the compression limiters between cell packs? If it is compression limiter interface between the cell pack assembilies then what provides the clamp load...

Pete Foss - Question. So I take it that each cell pack has some long thru bolts with nuts to compress the individual cells together so they are leak free? Then how does the coolant passage flow from...

Great forum of owners and potential owners here for sure!
