I really don't get all the hate here. Agreed that the Bolt in comparison with the Model 3 isn't very compelling - the supercharger access, autopilot, general overall look and feel, etc... i'm sure people could list tons of items...
that said - the bolt will be available first, which is relevant for a lot of people... it's also probably going to have the federal tax credit available long after Tesla can no longer offer it - which is extremely relevant for a good slice of the population. I mean, we've had tons of threads here with concern about whether individual model 3's will be early enough in line to qualify. *shrug*
overall, i think it's great for EV adoption in general, which is only good for our environment. If Chevy can sell them as fast as it can make them, that only goes to show manufacturers in general that EVs are more than viable - it promotes the acceleration of sustainable transport, which is EXACTLY what Tesla's mission is.
