    My 2016 Volt was my favorite car I ever had. Man, I loved that thing. But couldn’t buy it out after lease for anything close to residual and had to give it back.

    I wouldn’t be upset if Chevy revives the Volt.

      After a lot of research I went with a gen 1 Volt and couldn’t agree more, just enough battery to keep me from getting gas! The car was clearly designed with a lot of thought, and really sound engineering decisions all around, making ownership pain free.

      I love my 2014 Gen 1 Volt and would love to see the technology continue to improve. If they made a Gen 3 Volt with at least 100 miles all electric range and a heat pump system that didn’t halve the battery when it’s cold outside I would absolutely consider it over a pure EV for my next car.
