Looks like the car kinda was too (takes old car and puts new lights on it)

Chevrolet revealed a new Bolt EV. That's more information than you will learn from the company's media site. I know they all want to copy Tesla, but I thought they wanted the sales, not the lack of PR communication. Anyway, here is an old teaser image.

I have literally never heard of this goober, but I already hate him. Loser has the audacity to brag about saving people $300 instead of $7,500. The other stuff is just a lie.

No one: You know what we need right now?
Everyone: Healthcare? Public transportation? Rights?
No one: What? Eww, no. ANOTHER DOPE ASS HYPERCAR!

-Based in America, built in Italy, 50 units, $2.5 MILLION, V12, 830 HP 🇺🇸🇮🇹💰🔥

PERFECT if you just got a $4.5 trillion tax cut.

That's not true, I do. They are being willfully ignorant.

I'm not sure why people STILL do not understand this

That's because it was NEVER real. And typically when a cult realizes that, the best move is to quietly move on without talking about it.

I don't think enough people realize there is NO Model 2. These are it.

Not to brag, but THIS is how to do a headline.

I'm wondering if the fabric is somehow cheaper than the UV coating and the boarder of plastic that the glass roof cars get. But also... fuck glass roofs?

Hey Mike, worried about your GRINDR profile going public?

Must be nice for the white man to say "ignore racism"

The $29,990 one isn’t even the true base model

This little Nissan Leaf is $40,000. You can get the cheapest one for $29,990 and there is an even cheaper one coming. It has an electrochromic glass roof. What the heck else do I need? And it’s TEAL with blue seats!!!!!

Had to manually add up monthly numbers, but a tale of two Ultium cars. One thriving, the other dying.

GM is the only American automaker than seems ready to make it beyond 4 years.

Not scientific, and doesn't include every car (I will keep adding), but if you wanted to know whether or not people would rush out to buy EVs before the $7,500 credit went away, I think the answer is clear.

Idk, Ford also seems pretty inept.

J Rosenholtz @jrosenholtz.bsky.social · 8d

1) what products do they even have left in the pipeline?
2) this obviously means the Hellcat is coming back, right?

There are way worse things to think about

A sub-$30,000 EV in 2025 isn't really possible... oh...

Trump wraps up a speech to military leaders that represented a major escalation of his effort to weaponize the armed forces into a tool he can use to violently quash domestic dissent. Hard to imagine how anyone with a shred of dignity can keep serving after this, which of course is the point.

If someone won't hire me because I'm too anti-Nazi, maybe I don't want to work for that company.
