The Bolt EV 2020 is an awesome deal if you get the vehicle with a preferred price discount, or factoring in the $5000 Ontario government rebate. The vehicle skimps on some tech features in lieu of ‘electric fuel economy’, however it you plan on driving more than 30,000km/ year, the premium paid for a full EV vehicle, ends up starting to save you $. This vehicle is the closest EV option from a range standpoint, to the more expensive Tesla Model 3.

Pros & Cons
[tie_list type=”checklist”]
- Excellent range
- Very large feeling cabin because of an ‘electric powertrain’
- Instant torque makes the vehicle pull and accelerate instantly
- Great handling
- Available for government rebate in Ontario
[/tie_list]
[tie_list type=”cons”]
- Vehicle slides around on wet pavement because of the instant torque available in the electric engine
- Ride comfort is stiff
- Not large enough for a ‘frunk’ – front storage compartment
- Expensive premium for a full electric vehicle, and uncertain resale value. The vehicle is about 8000 more than a similarly specc’d Toyota Prius, and will take about 5.3 years to pay off the extra premium for a full EV vehicle, driving at 20,000km/year. At 30,000km a year, you’ll start saving money after 3.5 years.
- Most Canadians only keep their vehicle for 5 years
