Wirelessly Charge Your Cell Phone in the 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe & Suburban

MT. PLEASANT, Mich. – That moment when your phone alerts you it has less than 10% battery left, you're far from home, and you don't have a phone charger on you. It's like the world is ending. Dramatic? Maybe. But we've been there and we know the feeling! What if we told you, you never have to worry about that happening ever again? Well, you don't because you can wirelessly charge your phone in the 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe & Suburban!

No more cords needed to charge your cell phone from the road! The 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe & Suburban can wirelessly charge your phone simply by placing your smartphone on the center armrest! The armrest charging station on the full size SUV's fits nearly any size smartphone, all you have to do is place it in the right direction to ensure charging is active. The technology makes use of smartphone charging coils, but since the coils differ from phone to phone you just need to make sure the device is correctly placed on the charging pad.

However, it is important to note that since the wireless smartphone charging technology is new in the Chevrolet SUV's, it is limited to select smartphones that are compatible. But, even if your smartphone isn't compatible with the technology, there are adapter backplates you can purchase to use with your smartphone.

Watch how the 2015 Chevrolet Tahoe & Suburban Wirelessly Charge Your Cell Phone:



If you can't stand the thought of ever being caught on the road with a dead cell phone, this technology - and Chevy's 2015 SUV's - are for you! At Hank Graff Mt.

Updated 2016 Chevrolet Volt

MT. PLEASANT, Mich. – Gas prices have been on the decline, but that doesn't mean we're taking our radar off fuel efficiency, and speaking of...General Motors just us gave a quick sneak peek at the updated 2016 Chevrolet Volt! Talk about fuel economy!

The updated 2016 Chevy Volt was originally expected to debut at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, but it looks like GM just couldn't wait to show it off! The 2015 Consumer Electronics Show is going on right now in Las Vegas, and Chevrolet's Tim Mahoney gave the crowd a sneak peek when a curtain was lifted to reveal the refashioned 2016 Volt!

While a more thorough debut is still on the books for the Detroit Auto Show, what we know right away is that the updated 2016 Chevrolet Volt rocks a more futuristic, angular look! The front fascia has been revamped, ditching the dual-port grille and adding LED daylamps. The rear of the 2016 Volt still remains a mystery as Chevrolet made sure to keep it out of sight.

Most importantly when it comes to the Volt, the 2016 model's battery range is expected to offer a 5-12% improvement based on factors such as temperature and driving habits! Though pricing hasn't been officially announced, rumors are already swirling that it could drop below $30,000! The Detroit Auto Show is almost here, so stay tuned for more details on the 2016 Chevrolet Volt!
