Pricier Chevrolet Bolt, Volt Loom as GM Nears Tax Credit Threshold
It looks like General Motors won’t enjoy its tax incentive advantage over Tesla for all that long. The maker of the Chevrolet Bolt EV and Volt plug-in hybrid (“extended-range EV,” in GM parlance) told Green Car Reports it will pass the 200,000-unit green vehicle threshold this quarter, meaning a halved federal tax credit for those […]
2019 Chevrolet Volt: The Overlooked ‘Electric’ Wants You to Plug In More Often
It’s not a pure EV, but in the early part of this decade, Chevrolet’s Volt offered one of the few mass-produced electric driving experiences on the market. Now in its second generation, GM’s “extended-range electric vehicle” — which packs a 1.5-liter gas generator — has seen its status dwindle as all-electric competitors rivals sprout like dandelions […]

PHEV Excellence: 2018 Chevrolet Volt Tested in Depth
– Times have changed since the first Chevrolet Volt was sold in late 2010.

Chevy Volt may get killed off by 2022
General Motors staked much of its sagging reputation on the Chevrolet Volt when began developing the plug-in range-extending hybrid a decade ago amid overall cratering sales, a vehicle portfolio lopsided toward gas-guzzling trucks and SUVs, and a balance sheet bleeding red ink. And it worked, too: The Volt racked up a number of awards, positive […]

2017 Chevrolet Volt, in Depth: The First Plug-In and Still the Best
– The Volt was the first of its kind when it hit the market in 2010, and it has been at the top of the pack ever since. With a class-demolishing 53 miles of electric-only range, it’s a plug-in hybrid that can be driven like an EV much of the time. Boy racers may scoff, […]
2017 Toyota Prius Prime in Depth: New and Improved, Still Not a Chevrolet Volt
– The Prius Prime, all new for 2017, is a plug-in version of Toyota’s iconic Prius with a larger battery that enables an EPA-rated 25 miles of electric-only driving, a slew of standard active safety technology, and a high-tech cabin. Its single powertrain is efficient but otherwise utterly joyless, and the Prius can’t manage even […]
Buick's Velite 5 is a rebadged Chevy Volt for China
There’s nary a mention of the famous Chevy Bowtie badge in Buick’s press release for its new Velite 5. No shoutouts to the extended-range Volt, with which the Chinese-market Velite clearly borrows its hybrid gasoline/electric technology. But that’s okay; to borrow an adage, if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks […]
