ELECTRIC AND EXTENDED-RANGE MODES

Volt is an electric vehicle with extended range capability. Plug it in, let it charge overnight,

and it's ready to run on a pure electric charge — gas- and tailpipe emissions-free. After

that, Volt keeps going, even if you can’t plug it in. Volt uses a range-extending gas engine

that produces enough energy to power it for hundreds of miles on a single tank of gas.

Electric Mode

In Electric Mode, the Volt will not use gasoline or produce tailpipe emissions. During this

primary mode, the Volt is powered by electrical energy stored in its propulsion battery.

It can operate in this mode until the battery is depleted to a predetermined level.

Extended-Range Mode

Once the initial electric charge is depleted, the range-extending gas engine will start to

generate enough power to continue driving the vehicle. The engine ensures that you will

not be stranded by a depleted battery. The vehicle determines when the engine needs to

run. Engine speed will vary, depending on driving conditions, to optimize efficiency. The

engine will not fully charge the propulsion battery. The vehicle must be plugged in to

recharge.

Total Vehicle Range

The Total Range indicator displays the

total distance that can be driven, based on

the combined electric and extended range,

before recharging or refueling the vehicle.

The displayed electric and fuel ranges

are projections based on past vehicle

perfor mance and charge/fuel level. The

displayed ranges will change based on

current driving style and climate settings.
