- NewJazz 2y agoWe're kinda splitting hairs here. The significance, to me, is that the bolt does not have a very compelling drag coefficient compared to e.g. the Tesla M3 or the Ioniq 6.
- itsoktocry 2y agoThis about sums it up, doesn't it? >"Give us a budget EV that does this or that and we will buy it! >"How about the Chevy Bolt?" >"Sorry, the drag coefficient isn't as low as I'd like." It's always something. This is why auto companies aren't building cars for these people: they have lots of opinions, but don't actually buy cars.
- NewJazz 2y agoWtf are you talking about? I said budget sedan. Bolt is not a sedan. It doesn't compete with vehicles like the Tesla Model 3 and Hyundai Ioniq 6, which have much lower drag coefficients and consequently significantly longer range despite comparable battery sizes. You're generalizing, and it is disingenuous.
