After a full charge and driving 2 miles slightly downhill, the guess-o-meter says that I have 298 miles, with 375 max and 244 min. I live in Los Angeles, with a perfect temperature for an EV, but I usually show 275-280 in the summer after a full charge.

My experience driving around Los Angeles is that Waze was the best at determining where both freeway and street traffic will affect your commute. I have had too many experiences with Apple and Google maps routing me right into a traffic jam. Waze seems to be the most aware of real world road...

Google just released an update to Waze this morning which now supports CarPlay for Apple iPhones. Now we have the best nav. app. available for the infotainment console!

Google just updated their maps app a few moments ago. It now supports CarPlay! Next up soon, Waze!!!

Great post! Thanks!

Same here. All of a sudden the first click has one light and I have to cycle back to the top. it used to start at the top with 3 lights. Odd. Haven't done a software update that recently.

I did it. No issues at all. Worked just fine.

Most likely your USB isn't formatted to Fat32. Control-click on the USB icon (or right click), choose Erase or Format (can't remember) and select FAT32 from the list. Of course, it will erase what is currently on the disk if the USB was already FAT32, then make sure that when you unzip the...

I updated but saw no changes in CarPlay. I had no issues with the old firmware. The new firmware works just fine, though I see no changes which have resulted from it (I don't use Android).

Successful update for me. At first there was no sound from the radio, but I did a hard reboot and all was fine afterwards. Been working just fine for a few days now.

I have a Premiere and I have no problems with the front seats. Nor has anyone who has been in the car. It really depends on the individual (person, car, not sure).

This plate is not for Premier versions of the Bolt.

It's almost certainly the pedestrian warning noise. It comes on at speeds below 17 mph. Pulling the fuse will turn it off with no other effect on your car, except, when you plug in a charger you won't hear the chirp anymore. I think it will be law in 2019 to make this noise. Tesla apparently...

I have routinely had an estimate of 260-270 miles after a full charge. If you drive in L and are steady, you will easily exceed the estimated 238 EPA miles. Getting 250 is not unrealistic with the air conditioning off. Even more for some types of drives (mostly downhill!).

I believe it is running on QNX, which is what most autos are running on now, particularly if they offer CarPlay. QNX is from BlackBerry.
