I may seriously consider a Bolt , if they turn out to be sound , reliable cars . But it will be a few years , ehen they start coming on to the used car market . If the used ones are in the price neighborhood as used Leafs are now . Either that or GM will have to get very aggressive with...

As for comfort , the Sonic is OK . And you have to consider my Wife and I are on the large size . And old with stiff joints and aches and pains getting in & getting out . Comfort for younger / smaller people would be better . Ride is pretty good considering it is a small / economy car ...

To me , it would depend on what it is worth ( in cold hard dollars ) at that time . Versus the cost of something else . Will you wish to try one of the newer 200 + mile cars coming out " any time now " . God bless Wyr

I think I have read there is an app for the Spark EV ? Android ? Will it help our in this situation ? God bless Wyr

Fantastic ! God bless Wyr

I am still looking around for an EV , have not purchased anything , yet . I am trying to remember something I read . About inserting the key in a covered opening on the steering column , close to where the key would be on a gas Spark ? But maybe I am thinking about the wrong thing ...

Thank you for telling me that . It is valuable to know . Should be illegal , like turning back the odometer . And good to know the Spark EV batteries seem to be holding up well . Is this because of the temperature management system ? With no indicator , I guess it would show up in...

I see it stated that the range of the Spark EV id around 80 miles ? Correct ? Have any of you seen the range degrade , significantly ? Do the batteries seem to be holding up OK ? As I probably have mentioned , I am kind of shopping for an EV . Probably a Spark EV or a Leaf . They...

Thank you . :-) While I do not have an EV at this time , I am shopping around & trying to research the subject . God bless Wyr Happy Father's Day

I realize this is a old thread , but when I clicked the link , it went to a torrent download site ? God bless Wyr

Watched a YouTube video of a guy that something like 40,000 something miles on a Leaf . He pointed out that the instrument display had a " battery health " indicator with " bars " . Kind of like the display of signal strength on a cell phone . His indicator was down 3 bars meaning the...

Sporty , not much interested . Practical , I think the Sonic is , Spark probably is also . Depends on your expectations . You can not expect the performance of a Vet . Comfortable , fairly . But for the price , not bad . Again , you somewhat get what you pay for . And price is a...

Good ideas . What did you use to tow the Spark EV ? God bless Wyr

Why ? Under powered ? Or other reasons ? We have a 2015 Sonic 1.8l automatic . I am OK with it . But I am an old man and drive like an old man . I baby the accelerator , and coast as much as I can . Trying to stretch gas mileage . I do not expect neck snapping performance from...

We have 2 Chevy dealers in town . If and when I get closer to deciding for a Spark EV , I may just try talking to the service managers . I went by one of the dealers and looked at a new 2016 gasoline Spark LS with automatic transmission . " Sale " at $ 10,995 . I have a hunch it could...

A tow bar would be the only practical way to do regen towing , solid ( kind of ) connection between vehicles . I would only consider a tow strap , in an absolute emergency , for short distances . As for as towing in general , a tow dolly might be practical ...

Lack of dealership support is a very valid concern . I honestly appreciate you bringing it up . Thank you . :-) I have been in the electrical field , one way or another since Hector was a pup . :-) I have dealt with 480 VAC for pretty much that whole time , again , off & on ...

How about with a tow bar ? Might not have to have a 2nd person in the car being towed ? God bless Wyr

There are zero DCFC stations in 35 - 45 miles . Two public charge stations inside 10 miles . And two between the 10 mile and 35 - 45 mile distance . In different directions . I am guessing that all the public charging stations are Level 2 if they are not designated as DCFC ( on plugshare.com...
