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.

I drove one as a rental and it was alright, but I agree with you on the seats and the charging is waaaaaaayyyyyyyy too slow. Holy cow. My Ioniq 5 charges in like 15 minutes to almost full depending on where I started charging at. The bolt takes like an hour.
