Hi all,
We've been considering a 450h+ PHEV and all the literature I read says a 0-60 of 6 seconds. What is not specified though is whether that is in EV only mode or hybrid (EV/ICE motor) mode.
I saw one youtube review that mentioned the 0-60 in EV only was 10". That is way slower than the 7.5" of our 2017 Volt in EV only mode. We'd like to use the 450h+ like the Volt in EV mode only until it runs out of juice then the ICE kicks in but 10" to get up to 60mph is pretty slow for getting on the freeway and merging with traffic. Your thoughts and comments appreciated.

When you operate in EV mode, you probably will enjoy the quiet and very decent performance using electricity only. When you want the performance switch over to HV and you will be amazed.
