I rented and drove my first electric car last week and it was the 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EV. Needless to say, I was very impressed with the vehicle. The ride was smooth and the inside is spacious. The slow time of charging was very disappointing. Not alot of trunk space. The car had good pick-up speed for a small car. When you start the car, you hear no sounds, so I thought the car did not start.

This is a nice car, but I’m a little concerned about the distance it can travel on a full charge because it keeps going down this winter.

My wife and l love the Bolt. We had 2 Volts before this car. We commute 50 miles a day and have to drive the same for shopping. This car exceeded its published range by over 30 miles when driven home over 160 miles cruising 70-75 with A/C on. It still showed over 120 available. Lots of space and features, a very roomy car, super quiet and quick in traffic.

This is my first EV. I am a senior who needed a small, mainly city-driven, car for errands and short trips. Have only been driving it for a few weeks and like the feel and ease of its performance but HATE, HATE, HATE not having a traditional gear shift or parking brake. These tabs / buttons on the console are a huge nuisance. You have to literally look down every time you want to change gears. This is especially annoying when you are trying to shimmy into a parking space that might require several changes of direction. With a stick shift, you could 'feel' what gear you're in without looking down. I'm sure many manufacturers are following suite with all these unnecessary changes in technology so their latest models will look 'cool' and inventive. If it ain't broke -- don't fix it!

my first time owning an electric car and couldn't be happier. I find no or little range stress especially when you consider that the range is half a tank of gas in an ice vehicle ,plenty for me. i find it great to drive and very comfortable driving. my only complaint is seat is a little narrow could be about an inch or two wider. i've only owned 3 months but so far all is good.
