At long last, our first two Bolt EVs, ordered for clients, have arrived at Classic Chevrolet!
They were placed the first few days orders could be placed. Another five customer orders are in Mesquite, Texas, in a rail yard, awaiting delivery to us. Now that they are arriving, a mystery has been cleared up for me. I’ve been wondering how much charge new Bolt EV would have, upon arrival. These first two arrived with between 50-60 miles of charge. Needless to say, once we receive them, they have to be prepped and charged. We only have one DC fast charger, and it is not yet up and running, so these first Bolt EVs will have to stay overnight, to get fully charged on our Level 2 chargers. That will take approximately 9 hours, possibly more, as all the chargers we have now were configured for Volt. More on that as we experience the actual charge rate…
Hopefully, by Saturday, we can have all this first batch here, ready to deliver and fully charged. Stay tuned!
A Silverado for a Bolt?! That’s what I like to see!
My nightfall gray should be one of those at the train station. 😀 Cannot wait to drive it home!
I would like to hear why the pictured customer decided to trade a big pick-up for a Bolt. I wouldn’t have expected that.
They retired and don’t need a truck anymore.
If it was the first Bolt sale in Texas, i think GM should give you a plaque or a paper weight or something to commemorate the event.
Unfortunately, one of my cohorts’ customers Bolt EV got here before my customer’s. He delivered 3 to his customers before my 1st one came in. Luck of the draw at the rail yard.
