Bolt EUV News Roundup: May 17, 2024
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 чер 2024
- I will be doing an occasional news roundup for things that affect the Bolt and GM in general. These stories center around Tesla! How does that affect the Bolt, you might ask? Well, with the creation of the NACS adapter for the GM EV line, what happens at Tesla is important.
Also, false information about Tesla affects the EV market in general.
These are just a few of the headlines that are important to Bolt owners. So...climb in, let's go!

Great Report, Jim.....I am sure that my Bolt will out-live me!! Thank you for your insight and research....
You bet
Can't wait for the nacs adapter from GM for my bolt euv , great topics Jim keep the good work 😊
I’m hoping it’ll be sooner rather than later…but they’re not saying anything.
@MyBoltEUV hope so , also to see reviews from you 🙏
Good job Jim! Great research and insights. Love the Bolt EUV!
I called the dealer parts and they did have that number. They ordered it. Was canceled. Ford and Rivian offering them free so what is the right price??
Bolt still not in Tesla system.
Very interested in the CATL battery company and tariff news. #Aptera
I am currently taking a deep dive on this...but information is muddied and hard to find!
I think Musk’s management style is awful, but I’m glad they are still working to expand the network
Elon is a bit too curt and unbending…but you cannot deny his results.
Positive traits of Asperger‘s
People can sometimes view honesty in autistic people as extreme, in which they might perceive an autistic person as brutally honest with their thoughts and opinions. However, many people might also appreciate this degree of honesty. For instance, knowing exactly how a person feels can bring a certain level of security to a relationship. In that sense, many may view an autistic person’s potentially extreme honesty as refreshing and authentic.
A small 2014 studyTrusted Source found that high functioning autistic children tend to be more rule-oriented when it comes to morality. This can often provide autistic people with a deep sense of moral justice and fairness. This desire to protect others may translate into the autistic person or their loved one(s) getting involved in charities or other causes that help others.
I am interested in the terms of the layoff. If the people let go had all their options vested, they may be set for life.
GM Fairfax Plant Is Not In Virginia
Thanks...
1st question: What are the rules and requirements if a buyer purchases a used 2017 to 2019 Bolt that has anywhere from 60K to 120K of original odometer miles on the original battery,
and wishes to get the ''free'' battery replaced with the newer 62KW or is it 65KW engine/battery's that are in the 2022 models ?
2nd question: While I'm interested in knowing the answer to this question for May 17, 2024 as I post this question, I would be interested in knowing if the answer is going to apply
in the year 2025, (I'm uncertain about my first time entry into an EV decison in 2024, or waiting until 2025 based on middle east conflict outlook)
1st Answer: No reputable dealer should be selling a Bolt with an original battery - that would mean that it still has an open recall on it! I would contact GM before purchasing a Bolt with an open battery recall to see if they would still perform the free battery replacement.
2nd Answer: I don't have an answer to this question...sorry!
Tariffs to protect USA workers & corporate, not punish
Protect USA workers from what? These tariffs are aimed at something we currently do not make a lot of in this country because of backwards thinking and conspiracy theories...EVs and Batteries. If we were actually producing more EVs and making more Batteries, I could understand the tariffs. But we are not...so it is protection for the Fossil Fuel Cartels, plain and simple!
