    Wow! With only 13 thousand something miles and a new battery, it really is a new car. Congratulations! I just took delivery of a 2023 Bolt EV and I'm in love with it. It took me a day or two to master one pedal drive mode. I hardly ever use the brakes. I'm currently waiting for my level 2 outlet install provided by a Bolt EV promotion. For now I'm using a 110 outlet in my garage. I'm trying everything in my power to avoid public charging. Luckily I have a gas car as well. It's a 2013 Chevy Spark with more than 300 thousand miles. Not kidding lol. Gr8 vid. 🚙 🇺🇸 🔌

    That wasn't a charging battle, it was a merciless destruction 😂😂❤❤.

    their a great car just put 10k on the side incase you need to do hvac replacement or anyother component if it goes out. my 2017 bolt hvac went out so this is why im just saying. its a fun car love my 2017 and have 2 12s in the back 1500w at 1 ohm for my subwoofers that i have.

  • @mitchellbarnow1709

    Congratulations! You have a great BOLT there!

  • @jamesm7517

    Wow so you guys were in my neck of the woods and I test drove that very car at Laria Chevrolet. I love the Bolt. I had to pass at the time I test drove the vehicle due to monthly payments being more than what I wanted. I did rent a 2023 Bolt Euv for a week to try it out and will make a used Bolt my next car. Since 2024 the EV tax credit moves to point of sale at dealerships it makes the purchase even more rewarding. Thanks for the review.

    Lots of good info Blade!

    Did anyone else see the person throw up the peace sign at the

  • @rosario5972

    good video and good buy. The fastest charging for the Bolt is 10% - 55%. So for trips I'd start at 100% and during the trip charge from 10% - 55% which is roughly every 100 miles or every 2 hours.

  • @kneemeister

    I just traded my 2019 Priemier with 60000 miles for a 2023 EUV 2LT with 10000 miles out of the Novi Carvana Vending Machine.

    Look at the price difference between the two cars and take that into comparison.

  • @Ice_Bear1989

    I watch videos like this and they are mostly interesting but then some parts make me think "why". Doing a "race" between a Tesla and a Bolt is silly. Clearly the Bolt charges much slower compared to the Tesla. I don't own a Bolt yet but I have owned a Chevy Spark EV which has the same charging speed as the Bolt. Also people keep calling the Bolt a "commuter" or a "city" car and that's just 100% false. The Bolt can be local and long distant. I'll choose a Bolt over a Tesla any day. Decent video though but people who don't own an EV or don't know much about them then this gives the anti EV people more fuel to throw on the anti ev fire!

  • @CharlesSipe1

    I have a Leaf and am interested in the Bolt since it is so affordable and has a similar range as a Model 3

    You should check out the electrify America 350s they're really really really fast if you have the right vehicle. 😊

  • @kojoefante

    Thanks I think I’ll get one ..

  • @ryansherman4556

    My 2022 bolt euv only drops to 200 mile range in winter summer in the city about 270 mixed about 250 average 3.9 you also will get access to a tesla adapter next year

  • @hermancm

    I just bought a 2022 Bolt 2LT with a new battery and 7450 miles on it. I got it for $19,200 with the immediate $4,000 tax credit. It has the upgraded red paint and it looks new. Hopefully I won’t hit any deer with it as there’s many of them in the Northwoods of Wisconsin where I live and one just took out my 2002 Toyota Echo a few weeks ago, hence my need for a new car ugh.

  • @Petoskey116

    I live in the metro Detroit area. Did you find a good price on a level 2 charger nema 14-50 plug? I quoted a few and they were around $1k. Our house is new construction and can easily handle a new 220 volt plug, according to my qmerit quote.

  • @s.v.5829

    The bolt makes a good second car. It should be way more efficient than the Tesla considering its size, battery chemistry and form factor, but GM chose to make it steel frame and didn't use the best motors or inverters which really hurt it. The Tesla on the other hand being all aluminum is mostly hurt by it's size and people may not know this, but the Auto-pilot/ADAS is always on and always using about 250-300W.

  • @Vegetarianlifeforme

    That's strange the Tesla told you to stop at 74 percent.
