Detail your Volt like a Pro!

 

Volt_logo_blue1Last week we taught you how to wash your vehicle like a pro. That post focused on the outside of your vehicle, today we’re focused on the interior. Learn how to detail your car like a pro.

This post will focus on the interior of your vehicle. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Towels (x2)
  • Terry cloth towel
  • All-purpose cleaner
  • Foam cleaner
  • Glass cleaner
  • Vacuum
  • Stiff brush
  • Softer, but firm, brush
  • Silicone spray (optional)

You can clean the glass with traditional window cleaner.  You’ll also want to open up all of your doors so the entire inside of the car gets as much light as possible. This will help you find dirt and debris you may not otherwise see. Move the front seats as far back as you can to get extra access to space underneath the seats for vacuuming. Vacuum all of the nooks and crannies along your seats and floor.

You can use a mild soap or all-purpose cleaner on the plastic panels and on leather seats – if you have them. A microfiber cloth will keep you from damaging or scratching panels. If your door sill is dirty you may want to use a semi firm brush to clear debris away. You should only use a microfiber cloth on your touch screen.

Volt Favorite Feature Madness: Pedestrian Alert Vs. Zero Range Anxiety

 

What is YOUR favorite Chevrolet Volt feature? Unlike your basketball bracket, you can vote your favorite to the top this month during Volt Favorite Feature Madness. Today's matchup: The Volt's pedestrian alert “chirp” versus zero range anxiety. Here's a rundown of each:

Pedestrian Alert

Ped_alertElectric vehicles are quiet. Very quiet. In fact, if one pulled up behind you right now you may not even realize it. This could cause issues with unwary pedestrians or those who can’t see, so the Chevrolet Volt features a friendly, pedestrian alert. It’s also become a great way for Volt owners to say hello to one another as they pass on the road. You can watch a video about process of developing the alert here.

Volt Favorite Feature Madness: Instant Torque Vs. Quietness

 

What is YOUR favorite Chevrolet Volt feature? Unlike your basketball bracket, you can vote your favorite to the top this month during Volt Favorite Feature Madness. Today's matchup: The Volt's instant torque versus its quietness. Here's a rundown of each:

Instant Torque
Instant_torque_web_rdyIf you’ve ever driven or sat in an electric vehicle you know the thrill of instant torque delivered by electric motors. Without a traditional transmission, 273 lb.-ft. of low-end torque is experienced instantly. This helps explain why a vehicle with an electric propulsion system can feel so powerful and exhilarating.
