- The volt (symbol: V) is the SI derived unit of electromotive force, commonly called "voltage". It is also the unit for the related but slightly different quantity electric potential difference (also called "electrostatic potential difference"). ...
- Volt is the name of a fictional character in the various Transformers universe.
- Volt is a French language news magazine television series for teenagers. It airs on TFO, the French language public broadcaster in Ontario. The show debuted in 1994.
- (Volts (album)) Volts is an album by AC/DC released as a part named "Disc Four" on the Bonfire box set. Released in November 1997, the album is a compilation of some alternate versions of songs recorded for Let There Be Rock and Highway to Hell albums, and some songs previously released.
