2023 CHEVROLET BOLT EUV PREMIER REDLINE W/SUPER CRUISE - POV REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Premier Redline is presented as a compelling value proposition in the affordable EV market. The reviewer highlights its practicality, ease of ingress/egress, and spacious interior for its class, particularly noting the ample rear legroom and comfortable seating. Key features like heated/ventilated seats, a heated steering wheel, wireless CarPlay/Android Auto, and a surprisingly good infotainment screen are praised. The Super Cruise system, while functional for lane centering, is noted as an abbreviated version and its $2,200 cost is questioned given the vehicle's limitations for long road trips due to its 50kW DC fast charging capability. The reviewer finds the 200 hp FWD powertrain adequate for daily driving, offering responsive acceleration, though handling is described as competent rather than sporty. Real-world range is estimated around 200 miles in cold weather (25°F), a dip from the advertised 247 miles. Despite minor criticisms like limited trunk space and the lack of a front trunk, the Bolt EUV Premier is ultimately recommended as an excellent daily driver EV for those not prioritizing extensive road trips, offering a well-equipped package for its price point.
