4. It´s more car than electric 04
The 2011 Chevrolet Volt. Powered by electricity without being tethered to
electrical outlets. It drives gas- and emissions-free fort most commutes (6). But if
life takes you a little further, as it tends to do sometimes, the gas powered
onboard generator can take you wherever you need to go, giving you up to 375
miles ( 9 ) of total range. So you can just sit back and drive. Isn´t that what cars
are for ?
More power from a superior battery
the Volt battery has gone through numerous environment-
specific tes, including corrosion and hot- and cold-weather
testing and the results were so promising that the 16 Kwh
lithium-ion battery pack is backed by an 100,000
mile/8-year warranty ( 3 ).
Here Are a few more notes on the battery:
• Just plug it in to charge the battery, and most people
can commute gas - and tailpipe emissions - free for about
$1.50 per day ( 6 ).
• A small, quiet on-board gas generator creates electricity
that powers your Volt as you drive for up to 375
miles ( 9 ) on battery and gas power
• Lithium-ion cells outperform nickel metal hydride cells
(found in today´s hybrids) in terms of life cycle
• A liquid thermal cooling and heating system keeps the
battery at a comfortable temperature as it´s being
charged and discharged

The year of the Volt continues. Green Car Journal has just named the all-new
Chevrolet Volt its 2011 Green Car of the year, the firts electric car to ever win
the award, the premier magazine on high fuel efficiency and alternative fuel
vehicles says, “this has been a long time coming,” noting that early electric cars
showed promise, but lacked practicality. The Volt runs on electricity for an initial
range of 35 miles on a single charge, before a gas generator seamlessly creates
electricity for up to 340 additional miles on a full tank of gas, *Practical indeed.
*EPA estimates. Actual range varies with conditions.

speed of 100 mph in near silence. Free of the typical
noise of the internal combustion engine, the Volt offers
a quieter, more relaxing ride at any speed.

Electricity - a more sensible primary fuel
Put simply, electricity is a cleaner source ot power. and as
technology improves in the generation of electricity, we will
continue to see reduced carbon outputs. Advancements in
electricity production along with reduction in emissions from
electric-powered driving could help make our world a
cleaner place.
• Mostly produced domestically and is an inexpensive
source of power
• Cleaner to use than gasoline
• Utilities have the capacity to power millions of Volt
vehicles without overtaxing the infrastructure
• Electricity is produced by many different sources
including renewable wind, solar, geothermal and
hydropower.
• We´re working with utility companies to make sure that
everyone has inexpensive and reliable access to
charging
