Drove from Buffalo to Miami non stop. Like 22hrs?
I picked up a hitchhiker and had him drive.

Hey Guest, welcome to ChevyBolt.org. We encourage you to register to engage in conversations about your Bolt.
Take a look at the Aptera .... not exactly a direct competitor to Bolt, but at $25K with 250 mile range, fascinating
Aptera Motors
Aptera is the world’s first Solar Electric Vehicle that requires no charging for most daily use - giving you the freedom to do more with less impact on the planet.

They started development of this several years ago, but were too far ahead of their time, and closed down.
Recently resuscitated looks like they might actually get to market this time.
It can apparently really be significantly charged but its own solar panels in many climate zones, and in one configuration has a 1000 mile range.
I actually put a $100 deposit on one to hold my place in line.
---- added notes FWIW after seeing others' comments ---
I ordered one with the 400 mile range. In truth with our pattern of use and the fact that the 250 mile version can be fully re-charged in an hour at a level-2 charger 250 would be plenty.
Of note and interest to me is that it has no drive train. The motors are right in the hubs. That means no CV-joints, etc, to fail.
