These are the ones that you may not be familiar with: HV battery gauge stack located under the fuel gauge (left side), total vehicle range (left side under HV battery stack), driver information center (lower middle under average miles). Starting with the dash (Figure 3), there are many of the same symbols that you are already use to such as engine oil, engine coolant temperature, charging system (12-Volt), ABS, gas gauge, low fuel warning, speedometer, PRNDL, odometer, electric parking brake, TPMS warning, MIL, compass, door/ hood open, forward collision alert, lane departure warning, stabilitrak, seat belt, airbag, traction control, turn (directional) signal, high beams, cruise control and security. In order to recommend service to a Volt owner, you will need to be familiar with the vehicle along with understanding the dash and the center stack display (screen that is located in the middle of the dash, Figure 2) screen. If a Volt owner needs or wants to drive further than the expected EV projected miles they can do so because the vehicle’s ICE will kick in and take over, recharging the HV (high voltage) battery as it moves the vehicle. Now not everyone is Scott, there are many Volt owners that run out of electricity and have to use the Volt’s gas engine.

When he arrives at work he plugs his Volt in a local parking garage where is able to fully recharge his Volt and drive back home on full electric power. Scott drives from his home to work which is about 50 miles away.

Take a look at the data from his Volt app that displays a total of 38,124 total electric (EV) miles out of the vehicle’s total miles of 43,868. Scott, who owns a 2013 Chevy Volt, has achieved 276 mpg (Figure 1) as his lifetime average. My friend Scott Brown is one such person, living in sunny California. There are others that live in a friendlier climate that excludes cold weather and snow and having way better mpg results. My average fuel mileage for both vehicles has been about 127 mpg while driving the vehicles normally on roads in New York and along the East Coast. As a Volt owner, my first (a 2011 model) as well as my 2013 vehicle have provided 51 miles on pure electric after one full charge, depending on the outside temperature and road condition. The fact is that the Volt is a vehicle that can be charged up and driven on pure electricity up to 51 or so miles without using a drop of fuel.

There were many that thought that the Volt was a fully electric vehicle that would run out of electricity and leave them stranded. The Chevy Volt first model year was a 2011 model that was not properly portrayed to the motoring public.

Although the Volt’s ICE is not used in the same way as a conventional hybrid’s ICE, but rather uses the ICE as a generator to charge the HV battery. The Chevy Volt is an extended range vehicle that is similar to a hybrid vehicle since it also uses an internal combustion engine (ICE).
