  1. Chevrolet ships the 2027 Bolt at a $29,000 MSRP, retaining the same efficient drivetrain🔋 and EPA-rated range. Interior receives modest trim upgrades. Production is limited to ~18 months, creating a brief window for budget-focused EV buyers. - Powered by FG #Chevrolet #BoltEV #EV

  2. CW: Food

    On my way back from the #BoltEV event and at my Sacramento hotel, I ordered the healthy burger option (Beyond vegan burger with fresh fruit).

    The problem is that until two weeks ago, I was harvesting my own blackberries, raspberries, strawberries and apples. And mine (home grown) were by far, better.

    Yes, I a food snob!

  7. @sullybiker @onepict That’s why I disconnected the OnStar antenna in my Chevy #BoltEV and slapped a dummy load on the transceiver. Nothing’s getting in or out. Of course, I never paid for OnStar and my LexisNexis report came back empty, but it never hurts to go for the belt and suspenders approach.

  12. @chad Yeah. If I’d made this trip in the summer, it’d be a non-issue. I still love my #BoltEV but this was the most range anxiety I’d ever had. Even more than “I’m sure I can cross four states on one charge” and pulled into Maine’s second charger with the Propulsion Power Reduced warning (<5%).

  17. @deanbetz I had a similar list to you and ended up with a used #BoltEV. Realistic range is ~250 miles, but I’m planning some 300+ mile trips, and chargers are plentiful in the West, I hope. Hoping to read some good books while I wait for its slow “fast” charger, too.

  22. @ZachWeinersmith GM is a great case study. The #BoltEV was a resounding success, despite LG selling them bad batteries. It proved Americans wanted an affordable $30,000 electric car.

    So what do they do when the IRA passes and people can get $7,500 in Biden Bucks for a new EV? Kill the Bolt, and start making bigger, more expensive cars. Now, instead of spending $22,500 (let’s say) on a Bolt, you can spend $45,000 or more on an Equinox.

    Oh, and they axed Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so you get to set up all your apps again on their first-generation hardware that may require a $30/month OnStar subscription for all features, that will phone home to GM who sells your driving history to insurance companies — and I bet they’ll throw in your podcast subscriptions, music app names, and how many times you go to McDonald’s for a Shamrock Shake in one month.

    But it’s the buyers who are wrong.

  27. @nico My Chevy #BoltEV and I live in an apartment for now, so I can only do Level 1 AC charging (120V x 12A = 1.4 kW). It’s painful, but good enough given I work from home.

    Some local car dealerships have DCFC at very reasonable prices, so if it’s really low, I’ll just drive it out there for an hour or so.

  32. So I did a thing and bought a car yesterday. I’m on my second lease, and this one ends in 3 months. I’m a bit sad about letting go of my #BoltEV. It was my first #EV, and overall it’s been a good car. Tomorrow I’ll be coming home with my #MustangMachE. After 6 years of leasing I’m looking forward to owning a car again.

  37. @sohan That’s why I bought a used Chevy #BoltEV. It’s not perfect, by far, but it ticked most of the boxes on my list. Too bad Chevy killed it off.

  42. I’ve got to hand it to GM’s #BoltEV engineering team — and a little luck. I was on the receiving end of a three-car pileup last night and suffered no damage besides my bumper. Not even a scratch on the unibody.

    Kids, don’t take your eyes off the road.
