In crowning the Chevrolet Volt their “2011 Motor Trend Car of the Year,” Motor Trend magazine wrote “The future is here, and America is back in the game.” The magazine’s annual award is one of the most prestigious and coveted honors in the automotive industry. The Volt is powered primarily by electricity yet seamlessly switches to gas power for extend range, and it leaves little doubt that it is indeed a new day not only for Chevrolet, but also for the entire industry.
The 2011 Chevy Volt 1.4L is a “series-parallel plug-in hybrid” hatchback featuring a lithium-ion battery pack that can power the car’s 149-horsepower (111-kilowatt) electric motor, without gasoline for an estimated 40 miles in the city. Any further than that and the gas-powered inline-four engine kicks in to propel you an additional 300 miles or so. By definition the Volt is the most advanced hybrid to date and quite possibly the most fuel-efficient car on the market.
Yet, nearly as significant is that even the number one fuel-sipper on the road today, remarkably reaps additional benefits when a K&N replacement air filter is installed in place of an OEM filter. And just as noteworthy, K&N’s 33-2464 2011 Chevy Volt 1.4L air filter simply slides into the factory air box the same as the factory replacement does. Increasing air flow alone is not the accomplishment however, it’s flowing more air while providing exceptional engine protection.
Since 1969 K&N Filters has been designing, manufacturing, and enhancing High-Flow Air Filters for enthusiasts looking to maximize horsepower and acceleration. K&N invented the High-Flow filter technology, and our filters have been tested both in-house and by independent labs using the ISO5011 test developed by the Society of Automotive Engineers. The result is the most precise air filtration possible without impeding air flow, or engine performance, resulting from air restriction.
Like all K&N street use air filter replacements, the 33-2464 Chevy Volt air filter is washable and reusable and has the capability to run up to 50,000 miles before servicing is required, depending on driving conditions. K&N stands behind their replacement air filters by including a million-mile limited warranty – which means you will never need to purchase another air filter for your Volt.
