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 unless in

extreme temperatures. 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.

Electric range is affected by colder outside temperatures. During colder months, the energy

needed to warm the vehicle’s cabin and propulsion battery can cause the vehicle’s electric

range to decline. See Driving for Better Energy Efciency in the Driving and Operating sec-

tion of your Owner Manual.

Extended-Range Mode

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

ate 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 efciency. The engine

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

Total Vehicle Range

Total vehicle range is based on the available combined electric and extended range. 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 driving style, outside tem-

perature and climate settings.

See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.

PARkING

Electric Parking Brake

To apply the parking brake, pull the

PARK

Parking Brake switch by the shift lever.

To release the parking brake, with the ignition in the ON or Accessory position, press

the brake pedal and press the

PARK

Parking Brake switch.

Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.

Low Ground Clearance

The low ground clearance of the Volt aids in the

aerodynamic efciency of the vehicle. As a result,

the exible air deector under the front fascia

(bumper) may contact a parking block or curb if

the vehicle is parked too closely. Use care when

parking to avoid damage.

See Vehicle Care in your Owner Manual.
