Even if the EV the student gets is used, it’s still a good investment for school.

General Motors 2019 Sustainability Report lays out a 12-EV strategy that would take GM from a one trick pony with its Chevrolet Bolt EV to a broad lineup of vehicles unmatched by any other in the American market.
This week I said goodbye to my Chevrolet Bolt EV, affectionately named, in the style of Pee Wee Herman, “Bolty.” My Kinetic Blue 2017 all-electric hatchback served me well for three years and 26,490 miles, but a lease is a lease and I had to return it by January 8.
What began in 2019 and promises to accelerate in 2020 is company for Tesla’s current and future vehicles.
The third option was to grab a used EV. I recently researched the used EV market, and found there are some great deals out there. So, I decided that I would go cheap and try to keep my monthly payments under $200.
I know that I want another EV. Over the last several years, I’ve tested pretty much all of the offerings on the market for a week at a time, starting with a Nissan Leaf in 2011.
Over the last few months, my Chevrolet Bolt let me down. Nothing broke and it drove fine, but when I charged it, it said it was full at about 100 miles.
After two years, the three things that stand out about my Chevrolet Bolt EV are: 1. It’s done exactly what I wanted, with virtually no problems, 2. Time has flown, and 3. I really do love my car.
Summing up, this was a great first year for me at these National Drive Electric Week 2017 events.
The bottom line is that as hot as the Bolt is (leapfrogging into the top eschalon of EV sales), there are deals to be had. Chevrolet Bolt prices are all over the map.
