Car financing: the 2015 Chevrolet Volt

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2015 Chevrolet Volt for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Buying the 2015 Chevrolet Volt is a big decision; here is the information we have.

A buyer's checks

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Owners filed 44 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, fuel/propulsion system and engine; have those parts checked. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

Reading the spec sheet

The powertrain here is the 1.4L 4-cylinder hybrid with front-wheel drive and an automatic (CVT). It is a plug-in hybrid: it runs on electricity for a short distance, then on gas like a regular hybrid. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

Rated at 6.4 L/100 km combined, it needs around 19 litres for a 300 km round trip. It can cover about 612 km on electricity before switching to gas. That works out to about $9.92 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,200 a year for 15,000 miles.

Who rents the Volt

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Space and size

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Its length is 4.58 m, so it is mid-size. It fits most condo and driveway spots. In plain terms, its 510 litres of luggage space hold a family's bags for a long weekend.

A longer test drive

A week with the Volt answers more than any brochure. Rent the Volt first, and buy only if it fits your life. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.

Narrowing it down

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

Money matters

The EPA estimates US$2,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $9.92 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
