THE NEW CHEVY BOLT EV IS COMING SOON! MY FEATURE / SPEC WISHLIST

EV Channels Review

The reviewer outlines a comprehensive wishlist for the upcoming Chevrolet Bolt EV, emphasizing affordability and practicality. Key desires include a starting price under $30,000, ideally closer to $25,000, with options for both standard range (40-50 kWh) and long-range (78-82 kWh) battery packs. Significant improvements are sought in charging performance, with a minimum of 150 kW peak charging and a focus on a robust charging curve, potentially utilizing LFP battery chemistry. The reviewer also highlights the need for upgraded, more comfortable seats and expresses a strong desire for the return of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, which was a deal-breaker for many viewers. While acknowledging the previous Bolt's reliability, the reviewer stresses the importance of a bulletproof reputation for the new generation, free from battery issues. The inclusion of standard driver assistance features like adaptive cruise control with lane-keeping is also a priority. The overall sentiment is a call for the Bolt to reclaim its position as a cheap, reliable, and cheerful electric transportation option for the masses.
