My husband wanted this car. Spent the money on the home high out put charging system and such. The bolt rides good enough, front seat comfort seriously lacks big time. After one hour of sitting in it, we need to get out of it, and stretch. AC in the car is crazy great!! We live in FL. IT WILL FREEZE YOU OUT. Now there is the battery issue and the possibility of the car catching fire. I don't park it near my house anymore unless it's being charged. I guess GM will never learn their lesson with rushing cars into the market. AKA. the 350 diesel, the V8-6-4 engine, the 4.1 V8 engine Issues, and the north star engine cooling issues. We are gonna sell this back to GM and never return to them.

A quick & good handling car. Great for trips up to 250 miles. Get the heated steering and the seat warmers on the LT package, save some money. The Chevy app is not as good as the KiaSoul EVs app. We could not get it to show the current state of charge. A level one charger included with this car is enough for local driving of < about 40 miles a day. Get a level 2 , 16 amp charger for charging quickly for longer distance daily driving. The Chevy Bolt is excellent car and excellent discounts are intermittently offered in 2021 for lease of this model.

All electric cross over with heated leatherette seats and heated steering wheel. Front wheel drive gets up my snowy icy hilly driveway better than my F250 4x4. Comfortable ride and green for the environment. Charges on either 120 v or 240 v.

Our Bolt EVU has become our daily driver, milage is about 70 miles a day so it is the perfect choice for every work day. Weekends rarely exceed 200 miles and the Bolt has more than enough "juice" to do that. The mileage is greatly effected by your driving style. Want shorter miles available, drive it like a sports car. We have a solid charging routine at home and have never connected to a public charge station and sort of dread that experience should it occur. We have a petrol fueled pickup truck and suv should weather or hauling dictate their use.
