Chevrolet Volt
The second generation of the revolutionary Volt will be revealed to the world early in 2015. The first-gen pioneer does the interim for this model year, and has been graced with 4G LTE capacity, transforming the Volt into a WiFi hot spot! This electric car with range extender remains North America’s bestselling plug-in car. Its secret? The gas engine/range extender, which allows more than 400 kilometres of travel on top of the 60-kilometre range of the batteries.
