Was salivating over the prospect of getting a 2026 Bolt in late '25 with a $7,500 federal tax credit at time of purchase. Now that seems off the table. Looking...very reluctantly.... at alternatives to the Bolt which can be purchased by the end of '25 so as to get the rebate. Any thoughts on either the delayed Bolt or good Bolt alternatives? I would also like to stay as close as possible to the Bolt's $30k price point. Should also say that I bought a used '23 Bolt in January of this year. That's why I fell in love with it and want another one, and why I can't buy another used one and get another used-EV rebate.
Alternative to 2026 Bolt?

Right, if only. Capitalism has its drawbacks.
Can that actually be done?Take a trip to Tijuana and see what EVs they are driving there.
Let us buy Chinese EV in Tijuana and drive it back across the border to register and drive in the US.
No, you can't buy a new vehicle in Mexico and bring it into the US and get it registered. If it's at least 25 years old, yes. But anything newer needs to be certified meeting US safety standards, and that will only be applicable to vehicles built for the US market.
Yup. Two benefits to not allowing cheap Chinese vehicles into the USA is fewer traffic deaths, and higher profits for domestic producers and other foreign manufacturers we do let in.
