Sucks to see CarPlay go and we know why they did it, but I love the Bolt EUV, and it's good that there will continue to be an affordable option for folks still interested in EVs in this bizarre political moment. I think the new model looks pretty attractive, too, although the outgoing 2022-2023 models of EV and EUV were both pretty attractive as well, for being boring little family hatches.
I like the smaller bolt, so I guess I’ll be passing on this one.
I’ve read that drum brakes are cheaper and work just as well on an EV. I wonder why GM hasn’t reintroduced them as a cost saving measure. I’d also like to see a manual parking brake make a comeback.
Anyone know if this one has a shifter, or is it still using the push button D/L/R/P?
