The audio in this video was recorded with in-ear binaural microphones, headphones are highly recommended!

I'm also the producer for the Winding Road YouTube Channel:

Thanks for watching!

Ok, doing a new thing! I'm going to start putting the audio tests at the end of the videos - this way you always know where they are, and can easily choose to watch/listen or not, without having to skip around. Enjoy!

Just a note on pricing - I’ve been seeing tons of new 2020 Bolt LTs listed for ~$29k and Premiers for $32-35k. Certified cars are in the 19s to low 20’s. Pretty good value for what these offer imo

I love, LOVE the windows in the corner by the A-pillar. More of that on cars, please!

[JulezWinnfield]

There is something appealingly quirky about this car.

Just bought a Bolt this morning and discovered that my Inmotion V10F fits in the covered storage compartment under the back floor. Awesome!

I noticed that, like many reviewers, you did not appear to use (or know about) the regen paddle behind the steering wheel on the left side. When you pull the paddle (in either L or D mode) it hugely increases the regenerative braking so that you almost never have to hit the brake pedal, even when coming into a curve too fast. Not using the brake pedal means that the brake pads are going to last probably for the life of the car.

I drive a 2018 Bolt and I love it. It is just what I needed. It feels brand new everyday. It fast and firm. Fun to drive and it is good for air quality and our planet.

You didn't use the HD rear view mirror. We got our 2020 Premier for around $31.5 out the door.

Just picked my 2020 Bolt Premier up two days ago. Unbelievable deals on them right now.

[michaelnussbaumer]

Love my 2020 Bolt, I'll never look back at gasoline.

I bought one of these (used) about 3 weeks ago. I traded in my 2016 Nissan Leaf. I loved the Leaf but this is a step up. I love it! The only thing wrong is that I'd rather have a blue car. But I have a black car. Heated back seats for my Uber customers. (I drive 80-130 miles a day with Uber.) I didn't know the arm rest adjusts. Thanks for that. That holder is a wireless phone charger though. My windows are tinted. I'm going to love that in the summer.

It sounds like the modern trams 🚈 in Europe. Wind noise and the noise from the electric motor and it’s quiet when you come to a stop 🛑.

THANK YOU FOR DRIVING THE CAR WITH A PURPOSE

[ingenunis]

I like ALL the colors they offer in the BOLT✔️

[jakerst]

If I couldn’t get my hands on a Model 3, this would definitely be my next step

[idolhanz]

It's like a spaceship, something Boeing or Lockheed would build. I own a 2017 premier, build date 12 17, 65K, no gripes or squawks. Local or X-country, it rules.

[ronkipp]

A good video of the Chevy Bolt. I hear the seat backs are narrow and some people find it uncomfortable on long drives, did you notice this?

[rohitknandyala]

The Bolt doesn't feel as fast from a standstill but you really feel the thrill when you're just going like 15 mph and then suddenly floor it. THAT's when it hits.

[Raines]

found one listed at $14, 940 seems like a steal of a price but in a rural area with no charging stations I don't see the idea of buying one.
