Not that I really have any right to an opinion on this... but, I think the Volt has come a long way from the first year or two. We test drove a 2013 (first EV test drive!) just before the 2014's came out and, since we couldn't really comfortably afford a Model S, were seriously looking at the old 2014 Volt/GenIII replacement strategy. But then we bought a Model S anyway and very happy we did. However, I'm still impressed by the Volt and would take that over anything else EV-ish on the road if I had to (it goes without saying, except a Tesla!!!).
