I'm 30 days in with my new Bolt. I still have a month on my Nissan Leaf lease. I loved that ugly Nissan Leaf until my girlfriend commandeered it. The battery capacity after 3 years and about 25K miles is still 89% capacity according to my Leaf Spy app.
The reason I titled my first message with the dealers name is that when I visited they had 6 Bolts with more coming in. I cannot recommend this dealership any higher, they where wonderful! The price was unbeatable, yes unbeatable the first round of negotiations. I compared to other dealers and some thought I made up the numbers, others didn't know what a Bolt was or thought it wasn't available for sale in CT.
Yes, this is a shameless plug for Blasius Chevy.
As to the Bolt compared to the Leaf...well, lets just say three years is a long time in the EV world. Three years ago I thought the Leaf was like driving the space shuttle, now it's like driving an 85 Malibu compared to the Bolt.
I wanted to wait for the new Nissan Leaf, but I drove the Bolt and that was that.
Zero problem in 30 days (knock on lithium ion)
If you are not sure, DRIVE ONE, you will be sold.
Anyway, thanks for listening. Any questions from new EV drivers, flag me down. If you have range anxiety with the Bolt, come borrow my Leaf for a week >
