    The seats are a deal killer.

    Guys posting this stuff here is pointless. If you want to get GM's attention, create a separate thread, post your vehicle information, when you got it, and write a small description of how you feel in the seats. Rate it as positive or negative. Honestly all this back and forth is utterly...

    The seats are a deal killer.

    People should stop wasting time posting here and directly contact GM if there is indeed an issue with the seats. I mean 17 pages of this stuff??? Really?

    This reviewer was clearly smoking something

    I don't think he's Canadian. He test drives his cars here I believe but not sure. I won't comment on high nice or not nice Canadians are but my own experience has been they are perhaps the most passive aggressive people I've ever met this side of the UK.

    This reviewer was clearly smoking something

    If you want an honest review, even though it'll be quite flat and boring, is from some guy called Alex on Autos. His reviews are very detailed and not all about slalom, 0-60, etc....he actually reviews the car. Not sure if he's done a Bolt review though.

    I think a couple of people here would actually drink this kool-aid. Don't put it past a few here.

    ~450 Bolt EV's in Stock

    Yes they are close because there is so much inefficiency in an ICE that even an awful test won't sway the values much. EVs are just far more sensitive to range fluctuations because of such high operational efficiency.

    What's Up With the APR/Money Factor?

    Walk away unless they give you the MF you want. Period. You're not desperate for a car are you?

    Which options are worth having others not worth it.

    I doubt very much you'll even be able to get a Bolt without it already on the vehicle unless you special order. I think by default they are sending out vehicles with fast charging on them. I think this is the right thing to do anyway but the wrong thing to do is to charge people for it. At...

    Some dealerships are charging extra

    Some ******* who thinks it's justified will end up paying for it....works every time.

    ~450 Bolt EV's in Stock

    The more efficient something is, the more variations in performance there are. When you have something perform at vastly more efficient level than an IC vehicle, even minor changes in conditions can throw off the performance. ICEs are so inefficient and wasteful in comparison that any...

    Buy vs. Lease

    Easier said than done in terms of investing money into acquiring a new skill. This country's economic structure is very unforgiving and people have little to no safety net to fall back on if they are required to earn more money while doing something else at the same time. And gets even...

    Buy vs. Lease

    I think a great idea that I'd definitely sign up for in order to keep my EV for a longer period of time is to lease the battery pack. Like Renault is offering as a ln option for the Zoe. The Zoe's new pack is identical to the old one size wise and is directly replaceable with older Zoe's...

    Buy vs. Lease

    I agree GM is being a piss-poor company about the Bolt right now. But then so was BMW with their i3 when it first came out. But regardless that's not an issue with "leasing." That's an issue with GM. If someone who wants to lease is on the fence about what they want to do after the lease is...

    Buy vs. Lease

    What parts are contradictory? I'm not strictly talking about EV's...I'm talking about leasing any car. It has nothing to do with being obsolete. That's not the issue here..at least not for me. Leasing doesn't make your car the priority. It makes it a tool to use both economically - both in...

    Bogus Notification when using delayed charging

    OnStar and My Chevy notifications are notoriously bad.

    Buy vs. Lease

    Leasing is excellent if you can write off your vehicle (like I do). Leasing is excellent if you want a new vehicle every few years that has a fully warranty and service package and headache free driving and ownership (like I do). Leasing is excellent if you want hassle-free ownership overall...

    Buy vs. Lease

    Try something different...lease this time. If you don't like it, you'll know in three years and your next car you can buy. It's pretty simple.

    Buy vs. Lease

    Depends on your car owning philosophy. If you buy, you know pretty much where you stand on your payments and also your ownership of the car. If you lease now, it's likely you're not getting a good deal. If you lease a little later, I'm 100% sure you'll get a better deal (as far as leases...
