The following are short answers to a list of questions raised by a group here in Bakersfield for a Zoom video conference call.
The background for some of the topics should be evident. We’re in the midst of a state-wide lockdown or quarantine because of the coronavirus. The group wants to proceed in moving to EVs but also wants to maintain their social distance.
Bolt Test Drive?
You can test drive our Bolt to Hart Park and back. Bring your own HazMat suit. (That’s a joke. I’ll wipe down the touched surfaces after each user.)

View on-line, not in store.

Not now. Honor the quarantine. This spring, yes. GM is already offering substantial discounts.
