At Chevrolet Tacoma we are aware that you have many choices when it’s time to select a vehicle purchase. This is also pertains to looking for an electric vehicle. That is why we are more than proud to offer the Chevrolet Volt, which represents a powerful revolution in electric drive system technology that far exceeds all alternatives like the Prius. The Chevy Volt is an extremely efficient electric vehicle with a total driving range of 379 miles! The Volt can travel 35 miles exclusively on an electric charge using no fuel and creating no tailpipe emissions. After 35 miles the Volt will effortlessly transition to extended range mode for an additional 344 miles by using its gas powered generator to power the Volt’s battery. Yes, the Chevy Volt is efficient at unparalleled levels and yes it does so in elegant Chevrolet Volt style. But the power and the performance of the Volt are also incredible.

            The high-torque electric drive system in the Volt delivers the feeling of a 250 horsepower V6 powered vehicle. The Volt’s front wheel electric drive system exceeds all of your expectations. Popular Mechanics Magazine established in their independent tests that the Volt easily reaches 0 to 60 in less than 9 seconds. Popular Mechanics drivers clocked the Volt in at 101 miles per hour and found that the Chevrolet Volt “tracks like it’s made for the Autobahn.” The powerful 16 kW-hr lithium ion battery pack with 288 cells delivers gigantic performance, but also a long quality lifetime of a Chevy Volt. This is because the battery pack is climate-controlled with a liquid cooled and heated active temperature management system. Also, the Volt’s battery is made to function with top and bottom buffer zones which stop the battery from over itself like classic batteries do. All of these incredible features make Chevrolet confident in offering a limited 8-year 100,000 mile warranty on the battery, thermal management system, electrical drive components and charging system of the Volt.

            The Volt continues to out do what you would consider possible with different available driving modes including normal mode, sport mode and mountain mode. The propulsion system of the Volt when in these modes will adjust itself to the highest level of performance and efficiency according to the driving environment specified.
