The Care Package

About six weeks after acquiring our Volts, We received a FedEx package containing the items you see above. Specifically they were:

• A letter from Chris Perry, Vice President of Chevrolet Marketing, congratulating us on our purchase. The letter included a couple coupons for service (mine had expired before the package arrived!), an I.D. card of sorts with our VIN numbers and contact information for our dealership.
• A hard-cover book entitled, “Chevrolet Volt, Charging into the Future.” This is a really nice coffee table sort of book with lots of photos and it covers the development of the Volt.
• Ten ‘Information Cards‘ to give to people who are curious about the Volt.
• A “Chevy Volt Quick Reference Guide,” which includes useful links on the web, tips for driving efficiently, information on the RemoteLink app for your smartphone, warranty coverage and the maintenance schedule.
• A one-page flyer entitled, “Prepare to Meet New People,” which has a window cling with a QR code people can scan to get information about the Volt. (front side image, back side image) It suggests placing the cling on the right, rear window. I found the large text stating, “VOLT INFO SCAN HERE” to be a bit obnoxious, so I trimmed that away and just placed the QR code on my windshield, in the bottom-driver side corner. The QR code takes you to a mobile site, that then sends you to a YouTube video. I figured that if the person didn’t know what a QR code was, being told to scan it wasn’t going to do them any good, anyway.

I’ve mentioned before that our last several cars were Lexuses. We never received anything like this from Lexus, although they did give us key rings. This was a really nice surprise and the book is interesting and informative. Nice job Chevrolet!
