How I Love My Battery-Electric Chevy Bolt - Let Me Count The Ways (cleantechnica.com)

GM decided it would be best to remove its oh-so-popular Chevy Bolt from production and to focus instead on its Silverado EV and Equinox EV. For a variety of reasons, including loyal customer outcry, that may not have been the best GM corporate decision ever. However, for anyone now looking to purchase a used Chevy Bolt, the time is ideal to do so.

A used Chevy Bolt is a good vehicle to drive because of its reasonable purchase price, dependable battery-electric drivetrain, battery warranty, perfectly acceptable range, and comfortable styling.

They gave up on it because the profit margins were too slim. Then when they found out no one wanted to pay for the more expensive models, they decided to bring it back. The redesigned Bolt supposedly starts shipping next year.
