Just thought you would like another update on the Volt.....
I’m still really enjoying the car.
I started a new job where I cannot plug in......it is 30 miles from home....so on the way down I usually get electric all the way....sometimes I will have one or two miles left. I usually drive 60 or so on the highway and there there are a few miles of 40 mph driving. On the way home since I couldn’t charge, it is mainly gas....I probably get about 35 MPG on the gas.
My total mileage is 2,991 miles with 2,040 of that being all electric. The MPG calculated is 97 so far.
As expected, on the warmer days we have been having it does a little better. On the colder days, the electric range isn’t quite a far, but only maybe a few miles less. When it’s really cold (15 or so or colder), the gas engine does engage from time to time for short spurts of maybe a minute or two.
Very happy with the car! If there are any questions I can answer, I'd be more than happy!
Thanks,
