I'm still awaiting a 2023 EV 2LT, used to have a 2018 Premier. But having compared them extensively, here are what I consider regressions (roughly in decreasing order of importance).
  • No Camera-in-mirror
  • No Rear door unlock buttons - if you use them, they're extremely handy
  • Rear seats aren't heated.
  • IMO, 2022+ rear lights design & brake functionality are worse.
  • IMO, Chevy took a pretty unusable center console and somehow made it even more unusable in 2022+. I liked the original shifter and the ability to toggle between D & L, uncertain how buttons will feel. FYI - center armrest no longer moves, no tray in space under center armrest (this you can buy).
  • Regen in reverse felt very weird when I tested it.
  • Front console - I really like the original Bolt's white/grey colour combination & design, the new one is plain and boring.
  • Same with seats colour scheme - just plain & dark.
  • No roof rails.
  • Apparently no led turn signals on the side mirrors.
Comparison of Old and New Bolts in my Family has a good comparison.

Things the 2022+ EV 2LT has added compared with 2017: ACC, PowerSeats, HD Rearview camera, Sticky 'L' setting, better seats.
The EUV lost me when it added 6 inches to the car for "looks" and rear seats instead of the trunk - I'm still in disbelief.
Some of these differences are going from the Premier trim to the 2LT trim, not necessarily going from 2017 to 2023.

I don't know what this means :). This is a highest-trim 2017EV to highest-trim 2022+EV (not EUV) comparison as OP asked for. That's 2017 EV Premier to 2022+ EV 2LT, there is no Premier trim for the 2022+ EV.


Indeed. Agree with more premium feeling and probably touch screen experience. Personally, I like chrome, and prefer the quirky interior over the muted one. I didn't know the rear camera sprayer was gone, that'll be missed!
You are correct - I didn't notice the EV to EV, I thought you were comparing to the EUV.
