Farewell to the Bolt EV: GM’s Latest Announcement

GM is planning to discontinue Bolt EV and Bolt EUV by the end of 2023. In a recent announcement, General Motors revealed that they will be discontinuing their beloved Bolt EV model. This news has come as a shock to many eco-conscious drivers who were thrilled with the Bolt's impressive range and advanced features. The Bolt was first introduced in 2017 as part of GM's push towards a more sustainable future, and it quickly gained popularity among EV enthusiasts.

GM is spending $4 billion to overhaul the Bolt plant for production of electric Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra pickups starting in 2024.

Automakers Adding Insane Subscription Fees – NO WAY!

Did you know that some automakers are adding insane subscription fees to their services? Would you pay to subscribe to heated seats? Or for the navigation? But it’s already in the car, why pay for it? Automakers think you will. Automakers like BMW, Volvo, General Motors, and Stellantis are eyeballing billions of dollars in revenue from offering a variety of features and services on a subscription basis, rather than as an upfront option when you buy the car. These can range from heated seats, to extra horsepower in an EV, to streaming entertainment in a car.

There’s just one catch: Consumers hate the idea. The latest survey from Autolist.com offers more information on what you need to know.

In this video, I'm speaking about how automakers are adding insane subscription fees to their services. These fees will hurt consumers and could lead to the downfall of the automotive industry. Please share this video if you think this practice should be stopped!
