All: I am curious to know what you plan on replacing your Bolt's tires with. Will it be the same OEM self-sealing tires? Will you opt for run-flats? Or will you buy a conventional tire and buy an extra as a spare to be kept in the spare tire storage area in the bottom area of the trunk? I...

Got our black one 1 month ago. Had the windows tinted. Wife has been driving all over Atlanta with it. About 2,200 mi so far! Looks like we'll do about 25k mi / yr.

:idea: Great minds think alike AJ. ;)

All: I was surprised to learn that the Bolt doesn't come w/ a spare tire but instead relies on run flats to get me to a garage within 50 miles. Seems reasonable to me, especially given the space saved in the trunk. So I have a couple of questions: 1) Am I the only one who didn't see the need...

Yes Pigwich, it's true! I bought the same adapter that is referenced in the previous post. And it works like a charm. Decreased my charging times quite a bit actually (maybe 75% less than on 110V). So now I am looking at having a splitter to be able to charge two Bolts from one 50a. I'll...

"The Bolt also comes with a mobile EVSE that can charge at 12A/120V. The Bolt mobile EVSE can be used to charge from 240V sources with the use of external pigtail adapters. " The above is exactly what I am doing currently. It charges more than fast enough for us. So I could just get another...

Greetings, We're thinking of buying a second Bolt. We have an RV receptacle on a 50 amp service. We are using the standard charger with a plug adapter, so that we can get Level 2 charging. My question is, would I need to have another 50 amp service for the second Bolt, or could I just buy a...

Good to know! Thx!

Hi There, Not that I would be so careless, but I am wondering what would happen if I totally drained the battery and was stranded somewhere. Do tow trucks have a means of giving me a "boost"? Or do I need to use the tow truck for their main purpose and get a tow back home? Also, are there any...

Greetings, Whenever I use Google Maps over Bluetooth, the first couple of words are cut off in vocal directions. I've never had this problem before with other vehicles (same phones). Is there a setting that I am missing? Thanks!

Wow! Let's hope that someone comes up with a knock-off and sells it on ebay. But on a more serious note, don't these tend to decrease in cost over time? So we might be looking at something less in 15-20 years when (I hope) we will need to replace...

It seems to me that the EVSE is the way to go for the following reasons: 1) They charge at least twice as fast as the standard provided charger 2) I have read that the faster one charges the batteries, the longer one can stretch the life out

Does anyone have an idea what it will cost to replace the batteries in a Bolt? And how long do you think they will last? I guess the last question depends on how much driving one does and the kind of charger one uses. If we assume moderate driving and using an EVSE. I'm just looking for a...

Thanks winterescape! Now it all makes sense. So I will never get DC-level charging at home. Good to know. It's funny, with all the reading I did, I never saw anyone say that. I will almost never visit a public charging station, so I guess I won't see those super fast charge rates. Oh well, 25...

Greetings, I've been reading posts and get most of what has been said around charging. I plan to buy an adapter from these folks: https://www.etsy.com/listing/384390572/chevy-volt-chevy-bolt-ev-level-2-charge?from_reg=2&joined=contact-seller&box=1 so that I can used the charger that comes with...
