I don't have a way to display battery temp, but running for 20 miles at 80MPH is pretty much nothing. If I notice that I am going 80 I do slow down. But my 20 mile daily commute by freeway is...

Lots of good advice. I have driven my 2011 Volt on a 1400 mile (round trip) excursion, no plug-ins. After you drive in pure electric for a time you start to think you are committing a sin if you go...

I saw this car at the NAIA (Detroit Auto Show). This car is one impressive hunk of car. Even being a Volt owner I did not recognize it. Is it worth what they will charge? For that matter, what...

Have seen 10 Volts parked in our company parking garage at one time. There are at least two other charging stations down in the basement for executives. My wife fails to recognize another Volt...

Did not spend much time at the Volt display - I enjoy looking at my own Volt very much, thank you. Did notice that one of the Volts was red but looked different than mine, seemed to have a...

I have an early 2011 model. Have never noticed. What I have noticed is a kind of "transition" from electric regen to hydraulic at very low pedal pressure (to the point that if pedal pressure is too...

I have been fortunate. My employer put in 8 Chargepoint stations and made them available free of charge. Prior to that I scoped out our parking structure very carefully and found one available 120V...

Most likely is that the communication from the smartphone to OnStart is not very solid. It does not inspire confidence. Just bringing up the app takes about 20-25 seconds and then after keying in...

Also, set the recirculation to on - so you do not bring in cold outside air. Only thing is this might lead to fogging on the inside of the windows, so leave enough fan on to keep blowing air at the...

First, my volt is a 2011 - I don't think that mine even has a configuration screen that controls preheat. Also, I do not have heated seats. I live in the Detroit area - still just a bit soon to see...

Quite some time ago a new car always meant a trip to Ziebart or a similar rust prevention service. Haven't done this in a number of new cars. But I intend to keep my Volt for 10-15 years. Anybody...

I'm not an expert, but I think am familiar enough with this topic. The 12V battery is a bit on the small side capacity wise, but capable enough of jump starting a conventional car. It is NOT...

Trust me, the 1200 miles will seem like NOTHING in the Volt. (Yes, you will burn gas, but you will enjoy the trip).

I have a relatively early 2011 and it opens very deliberately (slowly, highly dampened). I thought it was a cute touch, but unnecessary. I am quite certain that this is a little spring driven...

Walter's reply/explanation is very good. But my observation is that from a standing start to about 5MPH it appears that current/torque is fairly well limited, and I would suspect that it is very...

Very well said, indeed!

I am happy with my charging options. It would however be nice to have a higher speed option at resturaunts or businesses where you would expect to be there for an hour or more. This is a much...

Until now I was unaware that you could answer it using a button on the steering wheel. Probably you just hit the button too soon. I always wait until it comes up on the center stack and then touch...

Gee, I guess somebody does not like the Karma?
I must admit that the car would make more sense if it preceeded the Volt by about 2 years. But other than the government money going into it I don't...

My 240V line is on a separate meter dedicated to EV use and the rates are time of day and much cheaper than house rate.
