EV Channels Review
This video chronicles a road trip from Massachusetts to Pennsylvania and back in a 2020 Chevrolet Bolt EV, focusing on the viability of Electrify America (EA) charging and the utility of destination charging. The reviewer highlights the Bolt EV's impressive efficiency, achieving around 3.7-3.8 miles per kilowatt-hour on highway speeds, even with climate control usage. Destination charging via a Level 1 trickle charger proved sufficient for weekend use, demonstrating its value for longer stays. While EA charging was generally successful, the reviewer notes a consistent 43kW charging speed, which is on the slower side. The trip was completed with minimal issues, showcasing the Bolt EV's capability for longer journeys when planned effectively. The reviewer concludes the trip with a "100% success rate" for EA and praises the Bolt EV's growing capability.
