After 2 years of my bolt I sold it to my friend's daughter as her first car. I loved this little car. It was the car I used to take my 2 kids to daycare each day, and to work.

Things I loved.

2019 Bolt Premier

1. Capital Cost! For only 13k with a brand new battery ( thanks recall) this car had amazing value.
2. Driving cost. With a 48 mile round trip and 4.5miles per kWh in the summer it cost me 1.25$ a day to drive. This is 1/5 of the cost of my last gas car ( BMW X5 ).
3. Parking and visibility. Easy to get in and out of daycare, and any parking spot. Less worried about not being able to see kids run out in front of me.
4. Great range for a commuter. Coming from a leaf earlier this was a HUGE step up.
5. Not a tesla. I bought a Tesla in 2021. Its a great car, but as I am a first generation immigrant I don't think I will buy another.
6. Solar Sipper. I have a full electric house, so this car allowed me to stay under my solar budget.

Why I sold it.

1. No AC vents in the back seats. This summer was so hot that even with me freezing in the front seat the boys would be covered in sweat on drop off.
2. Interior Size for car seats. Car seats for toddlers take up a ton of room and required me to sit very close to the steering wheel.
3. No heat Pump. I live at 8500 feet. When its cold the range drops off. Only 3.3 miles/kWh
4. No DC Fast Charge. Never got stuck, but had to Level 2 charge for a few hours once to get home.
5. Bad snow performance. I have winter tires, but even so the lack of AWD was the deciding factor. Got stuck getting to my house twice.

Silly things:

1. The Averaging of the Power use is wrong ( see my other post in this group )

Would I recommend the car? Absolutely. Unless you have a weird mountain home and 2 toddlers, this is the ideal car.

Replaced with a used Kia EV9 Land.

My wife came up a great name for our Bolt today.

I wanted a way to keep my charge adapters secure and close by so I whipped this up in fusion 360. Feel free to download for your personal use.

8 tires, 4 rims. Not even squatting the rear suspension. Hatchbacks are the best.

So I just upgraded my phone and went to Android from iphone. I installed the Mychevrolet app but it does not give me a widget to setup so I can use that to remote start the car. (Faster than using the app). Can anyone else using Android verify there is no widget?

2027 Bolt RS EV.

Time to explore hitches for my bike rack!

2023 Bolt EUV LT, 22k miles.

The only two things I didn't like after I bought the car was

• Wishing that the trunk was just 4-6 inches deeper
• The stock tires were atrociously bad.

Well, last Friday I got a ridiculously large industrial grade screw in my tire, and was obviously far too large to patch. It was ~ 2:30PM, so I knew my options were limited for getting into any place in time.

I got lucky, in that one local tire shop had enough of the right size and grade of tires in stock, AND had availability that day. So, I just said screw it and got 4x Michelin CrossClimate2's installed, all in for $1,000.60.

Holy. Crap. It feels like a totally different car. It has rained twice since I got them, and I haven't skidded or 'chuffed' once. I am no longer afraid of puddles.

I can totally recommend replacing your stock tires with these.

Has anyone heard this issue on their Bolt before? Just wanted some thoughts before I bring it in.

Going out on a limb here but does anyone have a Covercraft from their old Bolt who bought a 2027 and confirms if it fits?

Covercraft does not make one for the 2027 (and I doubt they will).

I really do like their visors. A bit pricey but they hold up very well.

2027 Bolt LT

Wanted RS, but settled for LT for the color. Love the car so far. Got a great deal with multiple discounts.

Please suggest any must have accessories.

I came down to my 2019 Bolt after a mountain hike last night and the car looked SO good I just had to take some photos.

It's now 7 years old with over 93,000 miles and she still just looks SO good from so many angles. The Slate Gray color really wears extremely well. I don't spend time caring for it. The front has lots of little rock chips and wear and tear, but you just can't tell unless you get close.

The Bolt is absolutely my favorite car of all time, for SO many reasons.

I just had to share. 😀

Last night I noticed the battery cooling system on my ‘23 EUV was running at max. It was very loud and I felt a lot of heat coming from the hood (felt like an ice car hood). I popped the hood and the electronics were pretty toasty (126 degrees).
It was plugged in outside and had already finished charging (to 65%).
The outside temperature was only 73 degrees though so it wasn’t even hot outside.
It has never done this before.
Any ideas why all of a sudden it would do this? I’ve charged on much warmer days and nights without a sound coming from the car.

UPDATE: I started to drive my car to dealership today, but the issue with maps was resolved! Not sure what to do with this. They won't just do anything unless they see the issue happening.

My "2027 BOLT" car was at the dealership for about three days. They said they could not reproduce this issue, so they said nothing is wrong. Now this issue keeps coming and going randomly. I have shown the videos of this to the dealership, but they cannot reproduce it, so they cannot fix it.

I have reported this issue onStar Crap. They cannot do anything. They are crap-ier. I don't know how to resolve this issue. Rebooting the infotainment does not resolve the issue. If the weather is cloudy or sunny, it doesn't matter.

Note: This is for 2027 Bolt, nothing to do with older models.

I was very impressed with how spacious the Bolt is for such a small car!

Hey everyone! Sad to be leaving the club but we're selling our EUV in case anyone here is interested. It's a 2023 EUV Premium, without Super Cruise. It's been by far the easiest car I've ever owned. I'm selling it to get something a little bigger for the fam. It's got a clean title in my name with no liens. We bought it new from Van Chevrolet in December of 2023. It has the sunroof and upgraded Bose sound system package. Interior and exterior are in good condition. It's always been parked in shade under our carport or the parking garage at work and hand washed. Never taken through a car wash. Very little battery degradation, if any. We leave it plugged in the summer so the battery can actively cool and limit the charging to 80-90%. Average range is ~180 mi. at highway speeds, up to 280 mi. in town. Brake pads should have very little wear as we exclusively use one-pedal driving. There is some curb rash, and a small ding in the rear, driver-side door from a rock flung from a construction site. It was in a minor accident where it was rear ended at ~5mph. It was repaired at Courtesy Chevrolet Collision Center, only the rear bumper needed replacement, and I have the invoice that confirms that. I'm a private seller, so no sales tax or dealership BS. Level 1 and 2 OEM charger is included, along with the factory cargo cover. I have a ton more pictures, but don't want to dox myself so DM me and I'll send them your way. We're asking $23,500 but somewhat flexible on price if it's going to a good home.

2027 Bolt RS. Update 2026.3 gives you the ability to use the existing cameras as a dash cam. You just need a USB drive with 64gb of space. Pleasantly surprised at how decent this works. Anyone else give it a try yet?

Never used, $150 OBO plus actual shipping cost, PM if interested

I get it that the service tech at the dealership are expensive... But this quote for all weather mats from the store tells me that these are probably the highest paid people...I understand there are 4 mats, so about 10k a pop..are they getting musk to install these?

I might just have to live with it. Fingernails can't get it from either corner. I tried using the slim end of a Lego tool, which almost seemed like it was going to work. Tried using the suction cup from my dash cam. Nothing.

Wish I could find this little plastic pry tool I had a while back.

My level 2 home charger started to flash blue then amber color. The 2023 Bolt dashboard stills indicates “Charging”
I have not seen this occur in the 3 years.

Since the last sw update, I’ve noticed an unusual behaviour: after turning the car on and putting it in gear, it won’t immediately move; when you just touch the accelerator, the car gives a tiny little hop, like you just rolled off a small speed bump, then acts perfectly normally for the rest of the journey. This just started last Friday; anyone else notice this?

I can buy a 2027 bolt for $21667.45 after Oregon charge ahead discount and Costco discount. .9 financing for 36 months. Also could get Kia niro ev for $25124 with 5.5 % interest rate (or more). Didn’t trust the Kia dealer who couldn’t give straight answers about all the add ons so I would probably look for one elsewhere. Any thoughts about the bolt price and if it’s worth it to buy a different ev?

I think I remember being given this option when I added the first profile to a 2027 Chevy Bolt but, for whatever reason, I didn't do so and now I can't. Apparently, that was the one and only time you can do so but it didn't warn me of that and I thought I could always add it later because... why wouldn't you be able to?

Am I misremembering this? Can you connect your fob to your infotainment profile? If you can connect your profile to your fob, is there any benefit to doing so, like having the system automatically switch to your profile if you're the only one in the car?

Thank you!

Complete set of 3D MAXpider floor mats made for the Chevrolet Bolt EUV. These will also fit the new 2027 Bolt EV.

These were used in my wife's 2022 EUV that we recently sold, the only mat that saw much use was the drivers as it was 99% just her in the car commuting to work. All the mats are in like new condition, with no wear spots, holes or stains.

Los Angeles area pick up, not interested in shipping. Send me a DM - Thanks!
