    It’ll be interesting to see if it’s a true successor to the Chevy Bolt. I have a feeling it’s going to be expensive and big instead. It had better at least support quicker fast charging.

    The original bolt was a success because it was cheap, small, and had a decent range for an EV in its class. It reused parts from other GM models (like the shifter knob) to cut down on expenses.

    Also the newer GM models don’t have CarPlay/Android Auto. So that’s an immediate no sale for me unless this thing is an econobox (which it won’t be).

      Looks like they’ve indicated that only the larger EUV will be offered. Unless you consistently have tall adults in the backseat or need the extra quarter inch of clearance regularly it’s a worse car in every way, but it’s pricier and gets higher sales margin so of course it’s the one they keep.
