We know that Nikki may have misread her odometer in a previous video (for which she's eternally sorry) - but her 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV Premiere has just rolled over 130,000 miles. Given that she's testing multiple things in it right now - including a new 12-Volt Lithium-Ion Phosphate Battery, ceramic coating, FrogPilot AND Nokian Remedy WRG5s, we figured it was time for a quick update. Here's how the Bolt is handling, what's gone wrong, and what we'd like to change in the future! 00:00 - Introduction 00:57 - Nikki's a fangirl 02:50 - This is its second battery (because of a recall) 04:12 - How things are after 130,000 miles 05:37 - How our Nokian WRG5 Remedies are behaving 07:19 - Battery Health 09:02 - Interior - and how it's holding up 10:53 - Steering Wheel starting to look old 11:35 - Open Pilot/Frogpilot/StarPilot 14:35 - Daily use - Do we long-distance with it? 17:00 - Update on the Ceramic Coat 18:28 - Qualityof life improvements 22:18 - Telematics problems 24:58 - Should you get one? 27:34 - Thanks, and Goodbye!

Overview:

Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we’ll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.
