Secret report from someone asks to anonymously rate Bolt....

Sometime in late 2014, GM contacted a number of Chevy Volt and other EV owners, and invited them to a market research study in Santa Fe Springs, CA.

Chevrolet had a 'secret' EV vehicle to present, and had 3 other vehicles also with badges removed.

They weren't supposed to tell anyone about what they saw, but some people did, and this report leaked out. It has since been removed from News sites, but someone took this image and saved it:

Interesting stuff - it's surprising how some automakers like Chevy go to all the work of having small focus groups etc, and other automakers seem to just roll out their EVs with no concern for what people want.

I guess it depends if the companies are interested in just meeting CARB mandates with their electric vehicles, or if they want to take a run at the Nissan LEAF and Tesla Model S in the lead positions. SO far, it appears GM is targeting the market leaders with their Bolt EV!

Old news, but still entertaining to read.

I remember there being a big issue about that news getting leaked back when it happened
