$28,995 Chevy Bolt: Is this the ultimate CHEAP EV?

We spent a full week driving the 2027 Chevrolet Bolt RS to see if this refreshed, limited-run electric car is the ultimate affordable EV on the market.

From real-world driving impressions and rough-road ride quality to the new NACS charging port, interior space, infotainment quirks (no Apple CarPlay/Android Auto), and accessibility features, we cover everything you need to know before buying or leasing one.

What do you think, should Chevy keep making smaller, affordable EVs like the Bolt?
