If you live in a home where you can install a charger and you have a fairly normal daily commute, this is an absolutely fantastic car. I'm not a huge fan of Chevy, but it's clear they have put a great deal of work into this vehicle. We owned a 2012 Volt and when it was totaled we bought a 2014. It's slightly better in most areas and we are very happy with it. The only downside is that it defaults to low power charging and the default can't be changed. Not even by the dealer! So if you install a level 2 charger, you will have to go into the menu every time you park to charge and change the charge level. It's infuriating because it didn't work that way on the 2012 model and it doesn't work that way on our Nissan Leaf.
We bought the car a week ago, and immediately went on a 2800 mile road trip to see if it could handle it. Passed with flying colors. The small tank made for more frequent stops than we would have liked, but the mileage made up for it. Unlike other all electric cars, we didn't have to rely on the battery solely. We were able to gas up and keep rolling. I'm an audio geek, and I wasn't offended by the sound system.After setting the EQ, it sounds pretty good! I rode in the back seat for a portion of the trip, and was PLEASANTLY surprised by the space I had to stretch out. I'm 5'8 195lbs and built, and didn't feel cramped. Now back home, haven't gassed up. Running on charges. Don't listen to the nay sayers. Get One!
This extremely economical Volt is also fun to drive. I have competed and even won in auto-cross and road-rally events. It's so versatile and has averaged over 165 mpg during my ownership over the last year and 15,000 miles. I find myself always answering questions about the car to the amazement of others that had no idea of this cars capabilities. I regularly exceed 1,000 miles between fill ups and usually go for months between gas stops. There are many free charging stations all around making it even more appealing!
