Holy Cow that's a ton of miles! Great you're enjoying the car. The high beam feature works well on my ELR and I'm assuming that the one in the Volt is the same. Might just be the traffic where you are.
Auto-highbeam is not available on the LT and is a standard features on the Premier...automatic high beams?
I have a 2017 and have never noticed this feature, is it something only available on the premier? I just have an LT with leather and bose.
No secret, just ideal conditions. 68 degrees F, HVAC set to fan only, no traffic, 2-lane highway, 55 mph cruise control, non-stop other than 1 stop sign, sunny weather, dry road.So was it just 55mph for 90% of the 84 EV miles? Your secrets, we need your secrets. Ambients, HVAC settings, load, traffic, weather, road condition, elevation changes.
Share you knowledge, master.
