Great car great value

I've had my car for about a year. It is a fun to drive. I have no regrets and wish Chevy wasn't losing so much money on each car, so they could keep production going. After state and federal rebates this car is an unbelievable deal. My favorite features are one-pedal driving and supercruise.

2023 BOLT EUV Premier Red Line checks the boxes!

I ordered this car in Dec 2022 and received it in May of 2023. I absolutely love this car. It is a fantastic value. I ordered the Premier Sun and Sound package but did not get the auto drive feature which I will never use. It's a great car for under $30K. I use it as a city commuter to drive back and forth to work. I've had it almost six months with zero issues. I charge at home on a 240 volt charger overnight. I go about two weeks before I have to recharge with my commute. I haven't taken it on any long road trips yet, I probably won't plan a long cross country trip in this car. For the rare occasions I will do a long x country trip, I'll rent a gasoline powered car. It handles great, it's agile, easy to park, roomy inside (I'm a tall guy almost six three) and I weigh 220. I fit perfectly in this car with room to spare. I bought a spare tire and wheel and stowed it in the rear tire storage area because I didn't want to ever be without a spare. I also bought the warranty package mostly for windshield protection since a new windshield can cost over $2K. I got the silver RED edition. It looks great. It's not the sexiest car on the road but people who know cars will know it is an outstanding deal and the person driving the car did the research. It gets very high marks for its price point. Remember, it's an economy car, it was designed as an entry point for EVs and GM hit it out of the park with this model. Evidently, earlier models had issues with batteries catching on fire. GM corrected this and the 2023 model has all of the software and firmware upgrades. If you have a chance to buy one....don't hesitate! It's a FANTASTIC deal for city commuters. Probably not suited for off-road at all since it's front wheel drive only but it packs a punch. A 200Hp engine with 266pounds of torque and 0-60 in 6 seconds or so. Not too shabby. All in all, I am very happy with this car. So far, no issues.

As advertised

Only had it for a month, but I really like it. If you drive the speed limit and don't drag race, the range is as good or better than advertised. Really great value compared to competitors. I'll write another review after the winter.

My White lightning 2023 bolt EUV

So far I love the car, but the dealer experience sucked. They were so dishonest and we’re not knowledgeable about the vehicle. I believe Chevy should crack down on all the markups. These dealers are putting on these vehicles.

Why doesn't everyone drive one?!

This is my 3rd Bolt. I previously had 2020 EV Premier, 2022 EV 2LT. I missed the stuff they took away from the EV in 2022, so I decided to order one like I wanted, with the good stuff I wanted, and none of the stuff I didn't. (Sunroof, Supercruise.) This is my favorite Bolt so far. Everything I had on the 2020, plus wireless Carplay and rain-sensing wipers, which is one of my favorite options ever. Literally impossible to beat at this price point. A great car and a great value.

Bolt EUV - Who knew it would be THIS GOOD!

Incredible value, fun to drive and super efficient. I have owned over 50 new vehicles and this has to be in the top three for the most enjoyable. Supercruise is scary for the first five minutes and then becomes enjoyable. I own three other ICE cars as well and they all seem very old fashioned when compared to the smooth, quiet and responsive ride provided by the Bolt EUV. Lots or room in the back and for everyday stuff, and plenty of range for commuting. Charging at home is a breeze with the level 2 charger, and the cost to run is under one cent per mile. (Charging rates from Excel 4 cents/KWh between midnight and 6am - vehicle returns 4.1 miles/KW of energy use). Couldn't be happier!

Chevy Bolt ideal for us

We have a highly positive initial impression of this car. Its performance, comfort, range of over 300 miles on a charge (city driving), facility of parking and maneuvering, and the sheer ease of accustomizing ourselves to its controls and functions have left us very satisfied with the purchase.
