"The car will do 0-100 km/h in 8.6 seconds and the on-board gasoline engine – the range extender – will continue to use regular fuel." This is puzzling. The 2015 requires premium fuel. One of the reasons they give is that there are more life-extending additives in premium. Either that reason is BS or they are expecting Volt owners to use more gas. There are guys on the Volt forums who have year-old gas in their cars. I plan to empty the tank every 3 months.

That is weird - mine uses premium as well. I was told the car forces you to run the engine occasionally - so the gas doesn't get old. Mine probably gets run at least every couple of weeks or so, so I haven't noticed any 'mandatory' engine running.
I just got the 'change oil' notification too - it is weird not changing the oil every few months. I think it 'cues' you on that every year as well, no matter the mileage on the gas engine.
