2012 Chevy Volt Available for Ordering at Zeigler Chevrolet Schaumburg

In another major step forward for green transportation, Chevrolet dealers across the country are now taking orders for the 2012 Chevy Volt. And while availability of the Volt will increase dramatically—the 2011 model launched in seven states and Washington, D.C.—its starting price actually will decrease. Thanks to economies of scale that come with expanded production, the 2012 Volt will have an MSRP of $39,995; that’s more than $1,000 lower than the sticker price of the first Volts, and it can be further lowered by up to $7,500 in federal tax credits, bringing the car’s net cost to consumers down to $32,495.

And take note, that reduced price includes more features, too, like:

• Two new exterior colors (Summit White and Blue Topaz Metallic) and two new interior accent colors (White and Spiced Red)
• Standard keyless access with passive locking, which can automatically lock or unlock the Volt’s doors when the key fob gets close to the vehicle
• Standard three-year subscription to OnStar Turn by Turn navigation services
• Standard Chevrolet MyLink, providing Bluetooth streaming audio for music and select phones (late availability)
• Standard AM/FM stereo with CD player, MP3 playback and 7-inch diagonal color touch-screen display
• Optional in-dash navigation system
• Optional 17-inch sport alloy wheels with black inserts (late availability)

Chevrolet also will continue its stellar (and standard) warranty coverage, which includes:

• An eight-year/100,000-mile limited warranty on the Volt’s 16-kWh lithium-ion battery
• Three-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper coverage
• Five-year/100,000-mile roadside assistance and courtesy transportation
• Five-year/100,000-mile limited gas engine coverage
• Six-year/100,000-mile corrosion protection coverage

“We are giving consumers greater choice of content as the Volt becomes available nationwide by the end of this year,” said Cristi Landy, Volt marketing director. “This gives us the opportunity to be more flexible in our pricing and still provide additional high-tech content to customers who want to purchase it.”
