Chevrolet has sold more than 100,000 Volt

Sales of electric and hybrid vehicles are increasing, as consumers begin to see the benefits that they have, compared to conventional cars. Chevrolet announced, that it is the first company in America that managed to break the 100,000 sales threshold with the Volt.

The American company presented the second generation of the Volt in 2015 and its sales from the beginning were very encouraging. Its success is due to its price, which is below the $30,000 after tax cuts, but also because its main rival, the Nissan Leaf, will soon get a new generation.

According to Chevrolet, all the Volts that have been sold, have traveled over 4 billion kilometers, with 2.5 billion kilometers being done, when the car is using electricity, thus saving more than 219 billion liters of gasoline.
