I knew LG was making a few parts for the Bolt including the batteries and infotainment system but there's more. I found picture showing just how much of the new Bolt is from LG.

Not too surprised as most of the listed items has to deal with charging, tech and batteries, things they specialize in. I did pause at the electric climate control compressor, that seems to be more of an automaker specialty than a battery producer like LG.

LG also makes appliances like refrigerators and freezers (among many, many other things)

That's where the climate control system comes in..

LG makes phones too so I have high hopes for their infotainment system, I've heard that people are always having problems with the new technology in cars.

Possibly running an android operating system ?

If it won't from the start it should allow you to, Lexus I think is doing that, it's the best way to go since it should even allow for Apple users. They need to cater to the different OS's out there, people are very loyal to either one. Would be surprised if for some people that's a deal breaker.

For sure it is. I've seen a lot of people say no I don't want to buy this certain vehicle because it doesn't come with apple car play, or I can't mirror my phone on this, etc.

It'll probably run both car play and android auto but the android auto would probably function better since LG produces them. Apple is just apple, yea I'm biased against them.

Lol couldn't tell at all from that post

But yea you would be able to do a lot more with an android interface opposed to apple car play

Can I buy a rubber cargo matt for this car? I live in the NE and will be driving for Lyft on spare time.

My sticker says the Bolt is 54% Korean parts so I would imagine that is all LG content in the vehicle.

Matching GM Premium All-Weather Cargo Mat Pkg. is part# 42400139

WeatherTech should have their Bolt custom floor liner package available soon too.

The Bolt picture looks obsolete, esp. the face and the C-pillar, definitely pre-production. There may have been changes in the supplier chain since then.

...and yet, so far people here seem to be pleased well enough with CarPlay and having small issues with Android Auto. Just sayin'

No, it's running Blackberry QNX.

Aw we were so naive.

I do not see a link or a picture in the discussion starter post. Where did it go?
From 2016, maybe that’s where it went.
