The current generation Chevrolet Volt is going through a serious sales slump, selling 2,779 units during the first four months the year and leaving 6,000 unsold cars sitting at dealer lots.
That represents a massive 46 percent drop compared to last years first quarter sales numbers. That leaves an outstanding number of unsold cars just sitting at dealer lots waiting to be bought.
With such a high number of unsold cars and an upcoming new generation model of the Volt, Chevy has been working hard to get rid of extra supply of 2015 units. The company recently added a $1,500 rebate to the price of the vehicle, and lowered the amount due on a lease signing from $1,449 to just $500.

The American automaker is even waiving that amount due at signing with a $500 conquest bonus if you’re coming from a competitive vehicle. Finally, those who want to finance the Volt, Chevrolet is offering 2.9-percent financing on 2015 models for 48 months and zero percent on any remaining 2014 models.
The 2016 Chevrolet Volt will go into production this year and will be available in the second half of 2015.
