Image by cseeman via FlickrWith school back in session, it's time for some students to answer the age-old question: "How did you spend your summer vacation?" Nine-year-old Jared Paramonoff's summer tale included a Chevrolet Volt, a 3,790-mile road trip and even a border crossing or two.
Immediately after Andreas Paramonoff drove his Volt from Southern California to Western Canada, his wife, Brenda, and son, Jared, hopped in for a ride from Vancouver, British Columbia down to San Diego and back. That's a lot of miles to put on a new car – 3,790, to be precise – and Andreas charged the Volt 11 times along the route. So, even though the roadtrippers never had to stop when the Volt's battery was depleted, only 450 miles of the journey were covered in electric-only mode. That's an impressive 40.1 mile average EV range, but it also means that 3,350 miles of the trek were done in "range-extended" mode.
Note this takeaway point: while General Motors touts (or, at least, touted) the Volt as "More Car Than Electric," this 3,790-trip shows that it's possible to have a Volt burn more gas than a Toyota Prius would on long trips like this
