Yesterday, General Motors announced that its upcoming all-electric Bolt will have an EPA-approved range of 238 miles. This came as quite a shock to electric carmaker Tesla’s ardent fans. According to Reuters, the Chevrolet Bolt “will be launched in a few months, nearly a year before the Tesla Model 3,” it will have a starting price “similar to the announced starting price for the Model 3,” but it will outdistance the Model 3’s targeted “range of about 218 miles.” With those stats, and helped by the metal-moving moxie of some 3,000 Chevrolet dealers in the U.S. (compared with the 100 or so Tesla stores) the Bolt has everything to disrupt the erstwhile disruptor Tesla.
