Designer’s words…

“Agile, smooth on the brakes and fast, here comes the Volt 5! Its predecessor revolutionized the world of EN-Cs by introducing the two-line construction in this category. The new Volt 5 continues to be at the forefront with, in particular, improved performance at top-end-speed. No more time for talking, grab your #speedmachine and get yourself electrified!”
