We just added a 2017 Volt Premier to go with our 2014 Tesla Model S. We use the Volt so we both have an all electric vehicle for around town and the Tesla for longer road trips using the Super Charger grid. They are a perfect pair.

Very nice. And deserving of your garage floor.

Awesome combo, congrats!

I'm also impressed that you somehow run your Tesla on bats...

Keep track of which car is used for extended trips over a 2-3 year period. This could be a case study in refueling-time preference.

Sounds like a good combo. For a few years I had the economy version of this in the Volt and the Leaf. Worked fine but the Leaf simply didn't have enough range, especially as the battery degraded. Your system should address this without a problem.

Red is best.
Great stable there.

I'd say. Another way to look at it is there are still trips you can't easily make in a Tesla (at least that's how it is here in the mid-west) so the Volt could be your long distance car too.

Note their location is Redlands, CA. Not exactly in a Supercharger hole.

I would reverse this usage for my needs, but where you're located there may be a lot more charging stations on the way to where you need to go. Whatever works!

When I think "road trip", I think out of state. If PSPoolside plans one along a supercharger route, perfect. BAZINGA was referring to the desert of superchargers that is the midwest, where there's plenty to visit on a road trip where the gas-powered Volt would be beneficial.

BTW, PSPoolside, those are the perfect pair.
