Buick Velite5
As you can see, the Chinese Buick Velite is just a Chevrolet Volt with a Buick front end.
Why not. As Buick is super popular in China, they might as well…
Something strange is the mention above of “116km”.
Which translates into 72.5 Miles.
It makes me wonder if the Chinese version has an even better EV range than the Volt.
Which is officially rated at 53 miles in the US. (I easily got 56 during my week review)
Or they have a completely different way to calculate EV range?
A 72 miles EV range would be quite an improvement for the US version.
I mean this is almost as much as the all new (So new it’s not even out yet) “DOA Honda Clarity EV” with its 80 miles.
Except the Volt keeps going….
