Berlin City GM, is your place to shop for the 2012 Chevy Volt. The Volt offers a total driving range of up to 379 miles, based on EPA estimates. For the first 35 miles, the Volt can drive gas- and tailpipe-emissions free using a full charge of electricity. When the Volt's battery runs low, a gas-powered engine/generator seamlessly operates to extend the driving range another 344 miles on a full change.

The 2012 Chevy Volt, powered by electricity without being tethered to electrical outlets, is revolutionizing the future of electric cars.  The Volt does everything a great car does and, according to Motor Trend, better than any other.

Engine

• The Volt battery has gone through numerous environment-specific tests, 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 limited warranty(4).
• Here are a few more notes on the battery:
• Volt offers an EPA-estimated 35 miles of initial EV range offering a gas-free and tailpipe emissions-free commute for about $1.50 of electricity per day
• When the battery is depleted, a small, quiet onboard gas generator creates electricity that powers your Volt as you drive for hundreds of additional miles
• Lithium-ion cells outperform nickel-metal hydride cells (found in today's hybrid vehicles) 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
• Commute gas-free on electricity(3) for an average of $1.50 a day
• Can be set to charge during off-peak hours for greater savings
• Your Volt will be fully charged in about 10 hours, depending on climate, with standard 120-volt line, or as little as 4 hours using a dedicated 240-volt line
