The Chevrolet Volt is expected to receive a mid-cycle refresh for the 2019 model year consisting of updates to exterior, interior and technology. To note, a mid-cycle refresh can otherwise be referred to as a facelift or a mid-cycle enhancement (MCE) in GM speak.
Following is speculative and unconfirmed information about the 2019 Chevrolet Volt. This page is a continuous work-in-progress and will be updated on a regular basis as we await official details from General Motors and Chevrolet.

Expectations
Following are our expectations of the 2019 Chevy Volt:
- Slight revisions to exterior styling, including integrating LED accent lighting into the headlamps so as to bring the vehicle’s design in line with the likes of the Sonic, Cruze, Equinox, Traverse as well as the 2019 Malibu refresh
- Slight revisions to interior/cabin
- Minor changes to features/equipment group structure
- One or two new exterior colors
- One or two new interior color combinations
- No expected powertrain updates or changes
Body Styles
The 2019 Chevy Volt continues to be offered in a single body style – a compact, four-door liftback.
Platform
Like all second-generation units of the Chevrolet Volt, the 2019 Volt continues to ride on the GM D2 platform shared with the following vehicles:
- Chevrolet Cruze
- Buick Velite
- Chevrolet Equinox
- Buick Verano
- Buick Excelle
- GMC Terrain
- Buick Envision
Production
The 2019 Chevy Volt is assembled by GM USA at the GM Detroit-Hamtramck factory in Detroit, Michigan.
Availability
We expect the 2019 Volt to follow the regular GM model year rollover sequence, and launch in the third quarter of the 2018 calendar year.
Beyond 2019
We expect that the second-generation Volt will live on for at least three more years after the 2019 model year. Rumors have been rampant that all-new, next Chevy Volt will not happen. Instead, the model will be replaced by a crossover utility vehicle (CUV).
