The 2017 Chevrolet Volt has a driving range of 38 to 53 miles. It has a seating capacity that increases from four to five people. Its backup gas engine now runs on regular instead of premium fuel, which means additional savings to owners.
The technology of the vehicle has also been improved compared to the first editions of the Volt. It is very practical as an everyday car. The hatchback design at the rear also means that there is ample space for cargo and luggage.
However, the 2017 Chevrolet Volt is not quite as advertised when it comes to its seating capacity. But it has a middle seat belt in the rear. But since the battery pack runs up the middle of the car, the center passenger has to straddle it, along with the console sitting on top of it. It is one of the unorthodox and certainly design downside of the 2017 Volt which Chevrolet has no way to get around from.
Factoring in federal and state incentives, prospective buyers can acquire the 2017 Volt for well below $30,000. And given the vehicle’s relatively low operating costs on electricity, the new Volt could be a money saver on the road while looking remarkably well outside too.
