Several weeks ago, at a screening for “Tomorrowland”, Chevy showed the new Chevy Volt and even gave drivers a chance to check out the new 2016 model, allowing them to share their impressions and critiques. And for the most part, people have been strongly impressed by the car, sharing lots of positive responses and discussing their experience in detail.
The main features that were noticed by most drivers were the extra seat, the powerful feeling of the car, the extra gadgets on the inside, and the overall style, which has seen an obvious improvement by the company’s designers. They have also lowered the model’s price to $33,995, and they seem to be trying to bring in as many new customers as possible for this release.
The car comes with a better gas mileage, something which didn’t go unnoticed in the test drive session, and its economy has actually been one of the main points discussed by Chevy’s fans. It’s been known for a while that they’re aiming at a seriously economic car, but what we saw at that event was definitely impressive.
Overall, the car reportedly just feels fun and exciting to drive, and it adds a lot to the experience on the road. It may not be a model that will be exciting for everyone out there, but we definitely expect there to be a lot of interest in the new Volt once Chevy start spreading out on the market.
It should also be noted that the company has obviously been taking previous feedback into consideration in improving the new Volt, as various features of the car are a serious step up from the previous releases by the company. It’s clear that they know what their customers want and they’re perfectly in touch with their market, something which is becoming increasingly important nowadays as more companies are starting to utilize social media, and as a result the market is becoming much more competitive.
In the end, the general consensus seems to be that the car is an offer that’s hard to beat right now, and even though it’s not the only good electric model on the market – far from it – it’s the one with the best price for its features, according to many reviewers.
Other models that are popular on the market right now include the Nissan LEAF, Tesla’s Model S, as well as their new Model X which has been talked about a lot recently. There’s also the Ford Energi and BMW i3, but those are arguably in another class and might not be of much interest to the same kinds of buyers that the Volt is going to attract.
In any case though, the electric market is becoming very active and people are starting to show more interest in it as well, which is good all around. The more people are looking into electric vehicles, the faster this market is going to progress, and we might end up seeing some pretty amazing developments very soon.
However, an interesting effect has been noted lately – with so many new releases coming up that look quite interesting to buyers, many people have decided to hold off on buying a hybrid for the time being, and are waiting for the new cars to hit the market. Because of this, most companies are seeing a stagnation in their sales, but this will hopefully change soon as they all start coming out with their own new models and hit the market.
