I assume Chevy will announce details at the press days at this coming week's Detroit Auto Show (press days start 13 Jan). But cars.com just started listing 2018 Bolts this morning. Not saying they're in a dealership yet, just saying they're listed on cars.com. National inventory had dropped to...

https://electrek.co/2017/10/03/gm-delivers-record-all-electric-chevy-bolt-evs/ I was one of the Bolt doubters earlier this year, but it looks like GM has delivered on their promises and reasonable numbers of people are buying Bolt. They're now running about a 30,000 annual sales rate. And for...

https://electrek.co/2017/07/03/gm-chevy-bolt-ev-sales-3/ I wish we could track Bolt sales by state. When you see national figures for the last month, you don't know how much of that is driven by that initial sales surge we've seen every time the Bolt enters a new market (pent up demand). For...

Cool, BMW is showing a pure EV 3-Series in September. Not quite official, but we can hope. https://electrek.co/2017/06/28/bmw-3-series-electric-tesla-model-3/

I'm just wondering? Why? And a confusing one at that. I started wondering about this when I seriously started looking at used Tesla Model S and Model 3. They have really simple, intuitive stalks on the steering column - which means you can have a really clean center console. In fact, I hope the...

September 5 is the Leaf 2 reveal. September is the Frankfurt Auto Show, and there are indications that there will be tons of EVs revealed. And by September, we should be seeing Tesla 3 in the hands of somebody other than Tesla employees. I wonder if we might see the 2018 Bolt? Or maybe another...

I don't know if's just CONUS... They delivered a month early. I don't think anyone can complain that GM has not kept their promise to make the Bolt widely available. You can argue about advertising, discounting, seats, whatever. But they kept their promise. They don't seem to be artificially...

Went with a friend to drive a Premium. He loved it, and I think he's buying the one we drove next week. I liked it a lot, but not enough to buy until I've seen the competition later this year. I'd call the Bolt 95% baked. Needs another 5 minutes in the oven. Your opinion may vary. Seats: No...

We all win when there's competition. For those of us still straddling the fence on the Bolt, 2018 looks really bright. Here are new pronouncements from Kia and Nissan. So now we'll have the Bolt, the new Leaf, the Niro Electric, the Ioniq electric, the Tesla 3, and probably a few others to...

https://www.slashgear.com/5-things-we-learned-on-our-chevrolet-bolt-winter-road-trip-19485525/ Just a blogger, an acknowledged Bolt fan, taking it for a ride in the cold North.

I've been on/off this forum for months, and I'm aware of several issues (pro and con) raised here (especially seats). Well I'm !finally! taking my first CT test drive (with an EV fan friend) this Saturday. I'm wondering if any actual Bolt owners would care to point out anything they feel I...

A question on another thread led me to start this thread, which I think is important. I can paraphrase the question, which was very politely asked and should not reflect negatively on the poster, as "Hey Scooter, you're always dumping on the Bolt. Why do you continue to post on this forum?". It...

http://insideevs.com/chevrolet-volt-sales-hit-2017-high-in-march-while-bolt-ev-sales-struggle-with-inventory-issues/ I'll start with my usual disclaimer: I'm a clueless idiot watching from the sidelines. You can interpret the article's contents though your personal Bolt news filter. The site...

I'm asking a question, not stating an opinion. I've assumed that head rests exists to keep your neck from snapping in a frontal or rear aspect collision. So I'm puzzled to see reports on this forum that owners are removing head rests because they're uncomfortable. I'm asking, not stating. Is it...

As a potential Bolt buyer this fall (If the Leaf II doesn't steal me away), I'm wondering if battery leasing is or will be an option? I'm asking because I keep reading about lucky Nissan buyers worldwide who are doubling their range right now because they leased their batteries. It sure seems...

I'd like to ask those of you who have actually owned any EV for an extended period of time (or for a Bolt owner, a few months), what's your take on this article? It's obvious more range is always better. Or is it? https://www.extremetech.com/extreme/245901-100-mile-evs-may-need-automakers-say...

http://www.autonews.com/article/20170320/OEM05/303209973/for-chevy-bolt-discounts-here-markups-there I don't vouch for this article. I just ran across it. I'd be interested in knowing what those of you who actually bought Bolts (30+ so far on this forum) think of it. Is the article...
