Bolt. If, then now.

Still pleased with my '12 PIP, as I was with our earlier '04. We've had a '17 Bolt LT, now with almost 20,000 miles. Trading it in tomorrow on a '19 Premier. After all the incentives (incl. fed. tax credit and state rebate) my out-the-door difference will be $2500, and this is upgrading to a model with extras that lists for about $6,000. more than my current model. Dealers are wanting to move their current stock before the full federal tax credit is halved end of this month, also pressure from Tesla M3 base. If you've been considering, now is the time.

 

What write up are you looking for?

 

Ah, really like it overall. Strong regen in L is great, allowing one-pedal driving. We've gotten up to the equivalent of 300 miles out of a charge (drove 257, with 50 shown as still available). Mileage takes a big hit in the winter when using the heater. I agree with other's complaints on the front seats. I understand there is a tweaked improvement in the '19's; we'll see. I don't like that it looks like every other small SUV out there. Before this we had a Think City and I enjoyed the conversations that brought on. I like the radar adaptive cc on our PIP Adv. That this $44,000 car doesn't have that is puzzling. Self-sealing tire did not self-seal with small screw it it. Plug kit and compressor I carry got me back on the road faster than changing a flat (Happened to my PIP too). That's the Cliff-notes version!

 

Just back from Baltimore. No glitches. All as promised.
