Disney's "Tomorrowland" to Feature 2016 Chevrolet Volt

DURAND, Mich. -Two massive companies are bringing their hopes of innovation and ingenuity for tomorrow together onto the big screen. Hitting theaters on May 22nd is Disney's "Tomorrowland" which will feature the all-new 2016 Chevrolet Volt and EN-V concept vehicle!

Disney's "Tomorrowland" is an exciting mystery-adventure about a jaded scientist and a hopeful teenager who set out on a mission to unearth the secrets of an mysterious place in space and time. Considering Chevrolet's optimistic spirit and their devotion to innovation, this partnership was a match made in movie heaven. A variety of television spots and digital advertisements for the film are set to debut in early May and will be the initial kick off for the marketing of the all-new Chevrolet Volt. 

Disney's "Tomorrowland" featuring the 2016 Chevrolet Volt is not the first collaboration between the two companies. In December of 2012, a reinvented attraction by the name of "Test Track by Chevrolet" opened in the Epcot theme park located in Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. Test Track allows riders to have an inside-the-studio look at the automotive design process and encourages them to create designs of their own while waiting for their turn to take a test drive. 

Don't miss the 2016 Chevrolet Volt's movie debut in Disney's "Tomorrowland"on May 22nd!

Meet the 2016 Chevrolet Volt

DURAND, Mich. - There is a lot of talk about the 2015 Consumer Electronics Show that is going on right now in Las Vegas. While several automakers are demonstrating their up and coming technologies, Chevrolet decided to take things one step further.

Meet the 2016 Chevrolet Volt, the next-generation plug-in hybrid that has been the talk of the 2015 CES. The 2016 Chevy Volt won't be making its official debut until the North American International Auto Show next week, but it did roll onto the stage at CES for a quick 1-minute introduction. Chevrolet did not provide any new details about the Volt.

What we do know is that the 2016 Chevrolet Volt is sporting a new futuristic, angular look. Chevrolet altered the Volt's front fascia, did away with its original symmetrical dual-port "grille" to give the car a more bias look, and added LED daylamps to the fascia. Chevrolet knew just how to keep attendees wanting more as kept the rear of the 2016 covered and out of sight. 

One of the most important features of the Volt is its fuel-efficiency and battery range capability. The 2016 Chevy Volt is expected to be improved by 5-12% depending on temperature and driving habits. Although this isn't a huge jump, Chevy drivers sure will love the price of the all-new Volt, which is expected to hit just below the $30,000 mark! 

The 2015 North American International Auto Show is just around the corner, so stay tuned for more details about the 2016 Chevrolet Volt from Graff Chevy Durand! Located at 9009 East Lansing Road Durand, MI 48429, Hank Graff Chevrolet Durand is revolutionizing the car buying experience.

The Secrets Behind Camouflaging the 2016 Chevy Volt

DURAND, Mich - Keeping one of the automotive industry's best-kept secrets is no easy task. Chevrolet has their work cut out for them as they work to mask the 2016 Chevy Volt's identity until it is ready for its debut at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January. Ever wondered what exactly the secrets behind camouflaging the 2016 Chevy Volt are? 

Well, firstly it is in the laps of Chevy engineers, not the designers, to create a camouflage that will maintain the secret of the Volt's styling and still allow for proper validation of its systems. It is a difficult balance, finding a way to cover more of the vehicle without compromising the results of the vehicle's development tests.

Although some of the "cool" designs Chevy engineers use for camouflage do earn some style points, the method to their madness is strictly focused on hiding the vehicle. Developing the perfect camouflage started six months in advance of early development. Here are some of the secrets behind camouflaging the 2016 Chevy Volt:

• Black and white patterns act as the perfect color scheme, creating a shadow that hides the vehicle's design elements.
• A 3D layering method can throw off onlookers, but much be applied carefully as to not interrupt the airflow around the Volt.
• Engineers have discovered that swirl patterns work better than the traditional grid pattern when it comes to realigning pieces of the vehicle.
• Bubble wrap is a light-weight, easily attachable camouflage material that can easily confuse all of those snooping Chevy lovers.
