The Tesla Model 3 is cheaper since I last tested it, so it's time for a rematch with the upgraded, long-range $44,000 Chevy Bolt
GM's top brass — President Mark Reuss and CEO Mary Barra — rolled out the Bolt in 2015 and beat the Model 3 to market by a full year when the Bolt went on sale in late 2016.When I first got behind the wheel of the Model 3 in 2017, I decided it was a modest masterpiece.The updated 2020 Bolt has a larger battery pack, at 66 kilowatts, and greater range oif 260 miles on a charge.But otherwise, the Bolt isn't much changed.
The cameras are pretty crisp, and my Bolt also had some driver-assist goodies, including forward-collision alert and lane-departure warnings. True, the base, LT trim of the Bolt is $37,000 — definitely worth a look, of fairly basic, long-range, entry-level EVing is what you're after. But the cheapest Model 3 offers significantly more car for the money that the Bolt. Think of the Model 3 as an affordable luxury EV, while the Bolt EV Premier is upscale mass-market.
