Chevy Volt - Real Answers from a Real ND Owner!

Jesse M. from Wilton recently purchased a Chevy Volt from Ryan Chevrolet in Minot. He has agreed to give us updates from time to time; to give us "real life" answers to the questions we are asked at the dealership.

Q: As with any new car, there's a "learning curve". How have you liked your Chevy Volt so far?
A: I am very happy with it....so far it has a little over 1,400 miles, with over 1,000 on all electric.

Q: How far can you travel on just an electric charge?
A: I commute from Wilton to Mandan for work. Most of the time I can get about 30 miles on a full charge and that’s been in the colder weather.....once it warms up, I hope it will be a little better.

Q: How long does it take to charge the batteries?
A: It takes about nine hours to charge fully on a 120 volt outlet.

Q: Has your Volt given you any unexpected surprises?
A: It has a neat program for my phone where I can remote start from anywhere....and it tells me how much time I have left to charge. That's pretty slick.

Q: What has been the biggest negative that you have found with the Volt?
A: About the only thing I can think which may be a negative is it requires premium gas which is about 30 cents more.....but not too big of a deal since I very rarely have to fill up. I’ve probably only had to put in about 10 gallons of gas since I’ve had it...which has been over a month...which is great!

We look forward to learning more about Jesse's experiences with his Chevy Volt and getting "real life" answers to those burning questions.
