  • This video is part of a series of videos which talks about electric vehicles. In this particular segment, I am talking about things to look out for when purchasing a used Chevy Volt. Hopefully some of you find this useful, and I would suggest you go look at the used Chevrolet Volt market. Many cars have come off lease and there are some great deals to be had. Drive gas free and have a blast while doing it!
    I'm still quite new at creating videos with myself in them, so I'm hoping that it gets better with practice!

    I have a Chevy Volt, and so does my wife. This car is currently the best compromise. We do buy gasoline, but about a tenth the amount of a fully gasoline powered car. Mine has a lifetime gasoline consumption equivalent to 240 miles per gallon. There is no "range anxiety," because after 40 miles of continuous fully electric driving, the gas engine starts. This car is cheap on the used market too, because people don't understand what a superb vehicle it is.

    This was perfect. I watched like 45 Chevy Volt Gen 1 videos but none of them gave me what to specifically look for when buying a used one. Thank you!

    Worth to note. Starting with 2013 you can get front camera with collision alert, sign recognition and lane assist.

    All these years later, this is still a good video to see for the prospective gen 1 Volt buyer, like me! I’m going to be looking at a 2013 in a couple days and I’ll have list of your points along with me. Thank you!

    Thanks for the heads up review in buying a used Volt. I'm now a proud owner of a 2013 Volt purchased after a leased.

    I wonder why dealers keep the battery fully drained on used Volts. That really bothers me when I see photos of the dash and battery showing 0.
