What — If Any — Used EV Should I Buy?
had a lot of appeal due to its dual engines. I could get about 50 miles on a full charge. The ICE would pick up the slack between charging sessions. Having 2 motors would possibly add eventual repair costs over the life of the vehicle, though. Inventory for a low mileage Volt was also low, so I’d have to choose a higher mileage Volt or invest in a newer model year. I wasn’t sure the cost/ benefit ratio would be worth it.had a lot going for it.
That left the 2 Chevy EVs — the Volt and the Bolt. I initially leaned toward the Volt, thinking that, while most day trips would fit its limited range, Marblehead , Chatham , Waitsfield , Bedford , and Newport were all planned destinations, so the gas engine would kick in. It also seemed that every Volt I located online required additional shipping costs, as few were available in the general CT vicinity.
The Bolt had the preferred range, albeit with a slightly higher price tag. Many online postings were frustrating with their “purchase in progress” tag, and I was starting to feel that I wouldn’t find a Bolt that would meet all my desired criteria. I realized, even if I located one that fit the bill, I would need to get written reassurance that the problem battery would have been replaced and that the previous owner had not already taken advantage of the $4000 federal used EV credit.
Voila! I found a 2017 Bolt at Scranton Motors in Rockville, CT — about 15 miles from my summer digs. As I took the Bolt for a ride, I learned that the dealership has had nearly 20 Bolts on their lot this year, all post-battery replacements, as part of a push from corporate GM. I test drove a cranberry LT with 17,000 miles, but it only offered a Level 1 charger. Surveying the 6 other available ones on the lot, I chose a 2017 blue Bolt with 26,000 miles.
