Well I found out today there isn't anymore tech help with the volts since they disbanded Volt advisors. Called Chevrolet customers service and explained that I had a 2012 Volt that had a 16.5 kW battery pack and I was getting 10.2 to 10.4 KWs . I told him I traded up to a 2015 with a 17.1 kW battery and saw no improvement still getting 10.2 to 10.3 kW and 48 to 50 miles ev range. I asked how many usable kW does the 2015 volt have available for use and I was told he didn't have a clue I asked if I could be directed to someone who might know another I don't know answer. So first I took it to a dealership that has volt tech and he had no clue either. My concern is A. Did my car get the wrong battery pack. B. Is it possible I have some bad cells.
Right now I am kind of stuck because when they find out how much ev range I get well you know sir we said it would get 38 mpg so you are doing much better than that. I even explained my 2012 with the smaller battery was putting up the same numbers. So I don't know.
