Yes, I'm certain about the raw charging rates of the Volt and PiP. This is really about the person, not the car. You say you get 6 miles per hour...
Not that it helps in Omaha, but Tesla also has a CHAdeMO adapter so it can charge at up to 50 kW or so where Nissan LEAFs and some other EVs can...
The next Tesla is indeed going to be the Model X and it will come out next year, I think. It is an SUV based on the Model S platform. The car I...
No, your PiP just stops charging sooner than his Volt. The smaller battery fills up in a shorter time while the Volt's larger battery keeps...
If I were looking for a plugin with an ICE I would definitely consider a Prius with a longer battery range. I certainly have nothing against the...
Why? My other car is a 2004 Prius so I'm comparing the Volt's hatchback storage against a car that I know. I assume the 2010+ Prius storage is...
The distance between the back of the Volt and the rear seats is not as deep as the Prius but the height and width of the hatchback area is...
Although, again, the combined MPGe number on VoltStats.net isn't very useful because they can't fetch any kWh data and just substitute the EPA...
My own average monthly EV efficiency in my Volt is about 27 kWh / 100 miles or 3.7 miles per kWh and that is mostly highway miles. So, $.27 per...

Good luck and let us know how it goes!
As a fellow Volt owner, please allow me to apologize for Bill Norton's obnoxious and embarrassing drive-thru. It kinda reminded me of the video on...
Nice. I'm a little confused. Shouldn't 3,528 kWh / (12,333 / 100) be 28.6 kWh / 100 miles? In any case, those are great numbers for driving that...
I've seen consistent comments over the years from people who seem credible and in a position to know that essentially all gasoline is the same...
Remember that calculations of cost per mile need to based on the actual power consumed at the electric meter. A 2013+ Volt uses about 10.8 kWh...
Don't worry -- the Volt keeps track of things and will automatically start the engine in "Maintenance Mode" if the engine doesn't otherwise start...
You live in the southern part of the San Francisco Bay Area, right? There are a lot more CHAdeMO stations in the Bay Area than there were just a...
That seems like a bit of a non sequitur. Lutz says he originally wanted the Volt to be a BEV but was talked into having it be an extended range...
