Anyone else read this road test in the March 2019 Motor Trend? I'm prepared to agree and accept the Audi E-Tron will be a very good BESUV, but then for $75,000, it should be. My problem is with the biased and really slanted opinions; Angus Mackenzie goes on for most of two pages praising...

A 5,000-mile Bolt Premier. This morning in moderate (40-degree) temp, the right front TPMS reading went AWOL. I own the relearn tool, so I can do it myself, but why should a less-than-a-year-old sensor go missing? The worry is our GM/Cadillac/Saab 9-4X has had the same TPMS dropping problem...

It was actually pretty pathetic. The selling points they had were based on ICEs and didn't apply to the Bolt and since there are no experience/statistics, we passed. One thing I have learned in fifty years of sales and marketing - if it comes to your door, rings your phone, gets pitched across...

Be aware the latest, greatest electronics and software can seriously f*ck your day. The only not-bad thing was this happened at home, rather than in some dark and sketchy part of the world. Could have been a VERY BAD THING if it happened in bad weather, bad area or a rest stop 100 miles from...

My local utility has a pilot program to provide a free charging station with installation. They've selected the Siemens charging station. It will be connected to the homeowners WiFi and report back directly to the utility. Their goal is to gather data on EV frequency and volume of use...

A gearhead friend asked if there was any testing as to the expected service life of the motor and battery. d Does anyone have info on motor service life? Does anyone have a cost for motor and/or battery replacement? I'd expect to be buying a self-driving Bolt in eight years, but the question...

None of the magazine road tests I read mentioned the full-power torque steer. The good news is the Bolt has enough power to cause torque steer. Once the driver becomes accustomed to it, there's no real problem, but ICE FWD designs engineered out the torque steer many iterations ago. Also, It's...
