The electronic system is also great, for example you can program the car to heat up the seats every time you start the car.

... in which case instead of 26 miles you get 18 miles on a charge. You'd best not be running ANY kind of heat in this turkey.

Bentway, from your link:

> In the beginning I was quite nervous because I did not understand the fact that the car would stop running on battery power and switch to electricity generated by gas after 36 miles.

That's because calling the Volt an "electric car" confused him.

Maybe you're the one who needs to be educated ... LOL
