PHOTO BY JASON RZUCIDLO / ©AMERICAJR.com Its price is estimated to be near $40,000, which would give a net price of about $32,500 after the $7,500 US Federal tax credit.
PHOTO BY JASON RZUCIDLO / ©AMERICAJR.com With fully charged batteries, enough electrical energy will be stored to power the Volt up to 40 miles . This distance is capable of satisfying the daily commute for 75% of Americans, whose commute is on average 33 miles. After 40 miles, a small 4-cylinder gasoline internal combustion engine creates electricity on-board using a 71 hp generator to extend the Volt's range to more than 300 miles.
