Speed, acceleration and handling
without all the noiSe.
Driving Volt is exhilarating. It’s smooth, it’s quick and
it can reach a top speed of 100 mph in near silence — all
while running on electricity. Free of the typical noise of
the internal combustion engine, Volt oers a quieter,
more relaxing ride at any speed.
Because Volt gets its power from an electric motor, it
oers instant torque from a standstill. This means that
the power doesn’t have to go through a transmission to
get you moving. Thus, when you accelerate, the wishes of
your foot go right to the tires and the pavement.
Volt has been programmed with three different driving
modes to accommodate dierent driving styles. Normal
mode is the most ecient setting. Sport mode sacrifices
a small amount of efficiency to increase the power for
more responsive acceleration. And Mountain mode
makes sure that the battery has a bigger energy reserve
to drive up mountainous inclines.
