I think GM did a great job on the Bolt (both version). The one complaint I've read about is the charge rate. Apparently its max rate is 50kw. That makes it less desirable to use on a road trip as you'll need to spend an hour or so to get to 80% charge. Too long, in my opinion.

The other thing they need is better ground clearance. At 5.6", you really can't take it on an unpaved road. I know that higher clearance increases drag. So, why not sell it with an option for shocks that can raise the body when needed ? After all, they do call it a EUV.

2022 Chevy Bolt EUV Wins Urban Green Car Of The Year Award

The Chevy Bolt EUV was up against stiff competition for the 2022 Urban Green
Car of the Year Award, including the Hyundai Kona Electric, Hyundai Venue,
Kia Seltos and MINI Cooper SE ...

A new addition to the Chevy lineup for 2022, the Bolt EUV rides on the same
BEV2 electric vehicle platform as the closely related Bolt EV hatchback and
also uses the same front-mounted electric motor and 65 kWh lithium-ion
battery pack ... EPA-estimated range of 247 miles ... less than the Bolt
EV´s rating of 259 miles ...due to the Bolt EUV´s slightly larger size and
more upright shape ...
