Volt goes 1,000 miles between fill-ups, says GM
Volt drivers averaged about 1,000 miles per tank of gas in March. But car shoppers need to remember that electricity's not free either.
NEW YORK -- The electric-powered Chevrolet Volt is averaging 1,000 miles on each tankful of gas, according to General Motors.
The Volt's gas tank holds 9.3 gallons, so that means drivers are averaging about 111 miles per gallon. As a result, Volt drivers are stopping to fill their gas tanks only about once a month, GM said.
