Why it stands out

The 2014 Chevrolet Volt stands out as an early example of electrified driving that still feels distinctive today. It operates as a pure electric vehicle up to about 40 miles, then the gas engine generator kicks in to charge the battery, which powers the motors. Chevrolet described it as more of an electric vehicle than a plug-in hybrid because the electric motors, not the gasoline engine, sent power to the wheels. That unusual setup gave the Volt a clear identity: it was built to deliver short-distance electric commuting without the anxiety of being limited to battery-only range.

For 2014, the Volt’s appeal also came from its efficiency and everyday usability. It had a 16 kWh lithium-ion battery, 149 horsepower, and 273 pound-feet of torque, along with 37 mpg when the range-extender was active and 93 MPGe in all-electric mode. It was front-wheel drive only, used a single-speed direct-drive transmission, and required premium fuel. The cabin was a hatchback with seating for four, and standard equipment included a seven-speaker Bose audio system, navigation, USB connectivity, and a 60 MB hard drive with 30 MB of space for music. Available features such as a rear camera, heated front seats, front and rear parking sensors, and leather seats helped give it a more upscale feel than many economy-minded alternatives.

There are tradeoffs, though. The Volt’s rear seat was cramped, its cargo area was small, and some owners have noted uncomfortable base-model seats and a few outdated tech features. Even so, the 2014 Chevrolet Volt remains appealing for buyers who want a compact commuter with strong fuel economy, smooth and quiet operation, and the ability to drive on electricity for short trips while still having gasoline backup for longer ones.
