We like our second generation Volt. We bought it knowing that it's 55 mile electric range would be sufficient for 95% of my wife's driving, but we also wanted something she could use for occasional road trips of several hundred miles without range anxiety or needing to find an EV charger. Tesla was out of our price range at the time, but even now, level-2 chargers, much less superchargers, are still not as widespread as gas stations especially to the places she sometimes road trips. The gas engine is somewhat whiny, but I don't find that it vibrates the vehicle. We're at 62K miles, of which 54K have been all electric. I've had to change the oil once. Visits to the gas station are maybe six times a year. I think it's worked out to about 2000 miles per tank of gas. Put new tires on it around 50K. As to build quality, yeah, it's an econobox with a very fancy drive train. Nothing rattles in it though besides all the random crap my wife keeps in the car. She's been very happy with it. Per usual, it depends on your use case and your mileage may vary.
