The “L” on GM’s electric vehicles is a stronger regeneration mode so you don’t have to use the paddles as much. You probably notice the car slowing down faster in “L” mode because the electric motor, acting as a generator during deceleration, converts more kinetic (motion) energy back into potential (battery) energy than when not in “L” mode. The paddles do the same thing, so when you use both the paddles and “L” mode, you get the highest regeneration. It takes power to spin the electric motor as a generator which is why you feel the car slowing down. The electric motor/generator is now braking your car instead of your rotors and brake pads. Regeneration works best in town or on hills where other cars have to use the brake pedal more. On highways, it doesn’t do all that much. Fully electric cars I would assume have more regen braking power due to bigger electric motors/generators which is where you get the phrase, “one pedal driving”.

When I had my 2011 model year Chevy Volt, I would get around 40 miles of electric driving range, my work commute was only 2 miles each way, 6 days a week, and on Sundays I would drive just about the 40 miles running errands on my day off. It came down to the point where months would go by where I was not using my gas at all, and the car actually would automatically run a 10 minute maintenance cycle running engine and burning off the stale gas in the fuel lines, in the 3 years I owned the car, I think it did that maintenance cycle around 3 or 4 times, and in the 3 years I only managed to burn a total of 56 gallons of fuel for a little over 17,000 miles of driving, which averaged around 300 miles per gallon roughly which is very very impressive, I would definitely get another Volt, but you are right, I am seeing ones that have around 100,000 miles with asking prices of 10-15,000, which is crazy. My 2011 Volt was brand new, and the sticker price was 45,000!

That's awesome man.....we are very interested to see how the experiment comes out.....we leave in a few days so we'll probably not post it until we get back and edit it and all that.....time will tell if this LOW gear method really has an impact because its about 388 miles one way and it's very hilly terrane so it'll be a good test!

Have a 2014 Volt Premier. I’ve found that Low gear tends to be best for coming down a hill or stop and go slow traffic. Otherwise, my range is preserved best when I coast in D and feather the regen section of my brakes. I experimented with only Low gear use during normal city driving and my range went way down. Live in a temperate climate most of the year. Charge on 8 amp or 12 amp depending on when I need the car fully charged.

@jackanddan 9 ай бұрын

yes....we did a similar experiment as the one we did on our trip to Penn and the low did may more electric miles although not much, but still more and honestly we dig the one foot driving because we have gotten so used to it. Here in Cleveland the weather has a huge effect on our mileage so we just try to get the most we can without getting too technical and this seems to work very well....thanks for watching

@@jackanddan It’s a great car; thanks for educating people on it. I get the allure of one pedal driving; it is pretty nice. I would be very psyched to inherit a Volt from my Dad. Too bad GM discontinued it. Maybe they’ll reincarnate it as a plug-in hydrogen car way way way down the road.

Good stuff! We have a 2017 Volt and I used to play around with low and the regen paddle on the back of the steering wheel, but honestly, using the brake pedal works almost better because it gives you variable amounts of regen up until it has to use the friction brakes, if at all. Also, some Volts have that "shift to park" issue with a switch inside the gear selector, so I figure, the less I'm moving that gear shift from drive to low, back to drive and then park the better.

@jackanddan Жыл бұрын

Very cool! We just posted an experiment on a road trip we took and it help gain 1 mpg in low and also hardly had to use the brakes at all so we are sold on it and we will be doing another city driving experiment as well soon. Even though 1 mpg on a road isn't much the saving of the brakes is nice and so is the one foot driving. We have had some instances only in hot weather with the "not in park indicator" and next time we take it in this summer for it's annual check up/oil change we are going to have them check it out....We posted the road trip video a few hours ago and we're going to take a few weeks to do the city one because its going to be over the course of a few weeks....thanks for watching and have a great day!

6:07 Actually, you DO have your brake lights on (and that's a good thing). Most cars with regen, including GM cars, will illuminate the brake lights in some way when slowing down with regen braking only. From what I've heard, GM cars illuminate them when you cross a deceleration threshold. If I understand correctly, if your speed is decreasing by a certain amount, your brake lights illuminate. Say you're going downhill and regen isn't really slowing you down, no brake lights. But if you're on flat ground or going uphill and your speed decreases rapidly, you get brake lights.
