![]() Officially known as a PHEV, or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, the Volt isn’t too difficult to wrap your head around. One thing that makes the 2012 Chevy Volt a rather interesting car is its technology, obviously. It’s a review of how the car performs as a day-to-day machine. Now we can get all petty and talk about the bailouts, whether they were right or wrong, who created the Volt, the controversy that surrounded it during its birth, the concept to reality differences, the amount of time it took, the supposed Liberals who love it and the potential Conservatives who hate it, and so on and so forth. Instead, this is my driving experience and feelings on the car after I was done with it. Let me be honest, this will not be a very technical review of the Chevy Volt, if that’s what you’re looking for, then Motor Trend should have you covered. Now, though, Tesla, BMW, BMW, Mini, Fisker, Chevrolet, Ford, and a few other companies, are producing factory created electric cars with driving ranges anywhere from 30-100+ miles. and send it off to California or a few other states to have it turned into a fully electric car by a handful of companies. It used to be that the only way you could get a true electric vehicle was to purchase a standard Scion, Toyota, Honda, etc. What I found out even shocked the hell out of me… For four days I took a 2012 Chevy Volt as my around town car to see if it’s really worth it.
