    I’m pretty sure the bolt was a compliance car, and they never actually made any money off of it.

      I remember them pitching it as a Model 3 competitor. They were too EV naive to understand all the reasons that it didn’t really compete. DCFC was literally optional (why would people want to road trip EVs?).

      It didn’t help that most people that I showed it to thought it was ugly. I never minded the appearance, but it wasn’t a selling point.
