Not enough DC Quickchargers available outside major cities. I rented one for UBER passenger and had to drive 100's of extra miles inj ust 1 week just to find a quick charge. Car is only good if you don't drive much. Maybe in 2024-2025 things may improve.

Nick, 14 Jun 2023“will be retired this year“. comeback? I don’t get it? Also can’t find one for less than MSRP... moreI just took delivery of my Bolt EUV that I ordered with no markup. Production took four months but out the door was under $31,000 (after tax and license fees).

Gee thanks for this little piece of bargain-basement journalism.

Also can’t find one for less than MSRP which is $31000+.
Dealers are charging $36000+, taking advantage of consumers.
That’s the American way.

On my third Bolt. First 2021 EV, second 2022 EUV, third 2023 EUV Redline. Each car I received a rebate from my state for $2500, the first one I also got a rebate from Costco for 2000, one from GM for $500. For the first car the net cost was about 17,000, I traded that one for the EUV because I wanted all the new features. New features. The week after I drove it off the lot they recalled 142,000 cars. I drove this car for about a year until I finally contacted GM and suggested that they were never going to get around to replacing my battery". Ultimately, they replaced the car with a 2023 top of the line and a $5,000 check. These cars are quite fun to drive, and it is so nice not having to buy gas! With a fast charger, I charge the car every night in my garage. I've never spent more than $30 to charge in any given month. Honestly, there is no car that I see that I would swap for mine. It's fast. It has decent room inside for a small car, and I am not spending anything on gas and oil.
