EVs still have major quality problems, and it’s mostly about the software (www.theverge.com)

I just want an EV company to make the equivalent of a shitty Toyota Prius.

A Nissan Leaf?

[–] n2burns@lemmy.ca 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

They're discontinuing it in 2026.

[–] AmbiguousProps@lemmy.today 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

There's tons on the used market.

[–] reddig33@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (2 children)

They all use Chademo connectors and air cooled batteries. Might be ok for puttering around town or as a commuter car, but that’s about it.

That covers like 99% of all private car use.

Chevy Bolt EV/EUV

[–] n2burns@lemmy.ca 0 points 4 months ago

Which has been discontinued. They have said they'll bring back a EUV for the 2026 model year, but we'll see if that comes to fruition.

I bought one just before the end. No ragrets. There are definitely some software quirks (the rear cross traffic alert always points the wrong direction) but overall I like it.

General Motors accidentally made a good car so that's why they had to kill it.

[–] dogslayeggs@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I was pleasantly surprised how good the Bolt was and still liked it after 3 years of leasing it. I was ready to get another one after the lease was over, but the pandemic changed my decision (working from home meant I didn't really need a nice car and definitely wasn't driving enough for the price plus-up for EV to make sense, so I got a used beater).

How did you feel about the L3 charging rate? 50kW isn’t super fast.
