We drove to the winery last night to fine tune the acids of our wines as protection against the heat wave. It was very hot and dark and we drove along our favorite back roads for a quicker trip. Then my partner, suddenly screamed to alarm me that we're going to collide to a vehicle without lights, but by then the Volt automatically slowed down to match the speed of the vehicle without visible tail lights. I then explained that it is one of the safety features of the Chevy Volt. The vehicle is a tractor, and you know how slow they travel, was pulling a trailer with bales of hay so that the hay was covering all the trailer lights, and the tractor cannot be seen from behind the bales of hay, so it was almost invisible on a dark night on a country road. Am so glad that I got the Adaptive Cruise Control package and it alerted me of the vehicle ahead even if I can't visually see it and it automatically slowed down to keep a safe distance. It is no wonder why the second generation Chevy Volt got the highest safety rating among all the US manufactured cars.
I wish they'll have the ACC soon on the Chevy Bolt EV. It's the only thing that's holding me from buying it.
