2017 Chevy Volt Makes List of Top Engines

The 2017 Chevy Volt extended range electric vehicle (EREV) represents an impressive feat of engineering, and once again, the advanced automobile has been recognized for its technological prowess. For the second consecutive year—and the third time overall—the Chevy Volt has been presented with a 2017 Wards 10 Best Engines Award.

WardsAuto Senior Content Director Drew Winter was practically gushing about the vehicle, saying of the award: “The Chevy Volt propulsion system wins a spot on the Wards 10 Best Engines list for the second year in a row for three reasons. It has a torquey, fun-to-drive personality. It offers impressive electric-only range of 53 miles and efficient gasoline-powered range whenever you need it for anxiety free driving. That is flexibility unequaled in the automotive world. And despite imitations, it continues to be one of the most unique and innovative propulsion systems ever mass produced.”

That’s certainly high praise, and it’s high praise we agree with. Drivers often come in to Keyes Cars with preconceived notions about what it means to drive a hybrid vehicle. Sure, they’re all in for a more efficient car, but they’ve come to terms with the fact that they’re going to have to sacrifice performance. But when they drive the new Chevy Volt, and they realize the truth: they can have their cake and eat it too.

The Chevy Volt makes use of not one, but two electric motors that work in unison. This setup optimizes efficiency and conserves electric charge. It also delivers responsive power and torque that you’ve got to experience to believe. And on top of all that, the Chevy Volt boasts a 1.5L direct injected high-efficiency engine. The engine serves as your backup, ensuring that the end of battery power is not the end of your ride, not by a longshot.

The Toyota Camry comes equipped with front sport seats that make use of side bolsters to cradle drivers and create a comfortable cockpit. This is just one of the interior elements that make the new Toyota Camry a pleasure to ride in. Sculpted cutaways in the seats and interior panels create more leg room for passengers in the front and rear. The headliner was also designed to allow for more headroom inside the already spacious cabin. Drivers are sure to enjoy the standard 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with power lumbar support, especially on long drives. A wireless charging system doesn’t come standard, but it’s an add-on we highly recommend. We promise, you’ll love your new Toyota Camry much more without unnecessary cords snaking all over the place.
