OFFICIAL CANADIAN VOLT THREAD

[maestro77]

Note the below attached images (hope this works!)

This info came from an Ottawa, Ontario dealer who indicated he could go online and "build out" a 2012 Canadian Volt. Yesterday, though MSRP pricing is out, I was told Volts weren't yet 'orderable' so I didn't really believe the dealer....but then he sent this. He indicates he has all the option pricing, even though it says W/A in the images.

Note the new paints and the change to the audio system. Things generally seem inline with 2012 info previously discussed in these forums and leaked here:

Though the UP9 option doesn't seem to show up in what my dealer sent.

I'm going to try to dig deeper into this with various dealers here - and if at all possible, get my order actually placed with my dealer of choice!

Oh....as a fresh rumour....the same dealer that provided these images said to me about a month ago: "It is my understanding that they are not going to let us order but just deliver some to the dealers." I've questioned twice today if that's still his believe, but he's dodging answering. I find the rumour hard to believe....but he DOES seem to be ahead of the curve with his Volt info....so maybe.

Anyone (ie. GM employees??) have any comment on any of this stuff?

Here is similar info to what I started the thread with. But THIS is from the dealer I'm going to buy from...and includes option pricing!

Now THIS is juicy! It's from yet another dealer I'm in contact with. It's the 2012 Volt Initial Ordering Workbook! Unfortunately, while the two new colours are documented, it's such early info they don't show a colour chip.

Anyone finding this stuff interesting?

Of interest, the Luxo Blue Metallic is a zero cost option. Now the debate is, is the Canadian Luxo Blue the same as the announced US Topaz Blue?

2012 Canadian MSRP will be $41,545 (USD $43,610 at current exchange rates). I'm not sure how much that compares to what the 2012 US prices will be.

Awesome info maestro -- but I can't read the pricing in your JPGs. Could just type the option prices in a post, I'm sure a lot of people would be interested? Or use the "advanced" button & attach the PDFs, rather than PDF->JPG which is a bit blurry at the settings you are using.

I assume this is all in Canadian dollars. I'm particularly interested in the audio & nav options pricing.

Thanks stephent. I have been using the 'Advanced" button to add files....but it seems that I'm either an idiot or was to bleary eyed to notice that PDF was a valid upload extension. I specifically looked when I did this, and was dismayed to see that to my surprise it wasn't an acceptable format. But I was wrong (duh!). Looking a second time now I see that PDF is accepted. I'll go back now and see if I can replaced my JPGs with PDF.

Yeah - would be Canadian dollars.

[maestro77]

Done. Obviously that's now much better!

Hi - been following the site for years. Put my deposit down at an Ottawa dealer last month for a Volt. In addition to the info above I learned from well placed source at GM Canada the following:

The premium trim level includes perforated leather appointed seat trim, leather wrapped steering wheel, heated driver and front passenger seats and premium door trim. The MSRP for this option is $1,695.

The DVD Navigation system is now optional just like it will be in US and will be $2,295 - which all things considering isn't to bad.

Looks like however those that bought the 2011 in the U.S. got the real deal here. Frankly tho, I am just happy that it will be coming to Canada!
