Holden Volt Review, For Sale, Specs, Models & News in Australia

The Holden Volt was a revolutionary car for Holden in Australia, but unfortunately was the right car at the wrong time as people were too invested in buying Commodores.

The Volt was a rage-extender hybrid that used a petrol engine to charge the batteries that then propelled the car. It was discontinued after a couple of years following slow sales.

The line-up currently starts at $14,740 for the Volt EV and ranges through to $19,360 for the range-topping Volt EV.
