Because you can get a Bolt for under $30,000 after tax incentives today, by driving it off the lot. It is selling well enough that GM is expanding production. If you want your $50,000 Tesla Model 3, you put in a reservation request and get it in 2019... maybe.
That's why.
C&D weren't the only ones who have had high praise of the Bolt. The Business Weekly reviewer got weeklong access to Bolt and Model 3 and still called it a tie.
Now personally I wouldn't be caught dead in a Bolt.... but I'm not hypnotized enough by what Tesla is doing to not understand why the car is appealing to many people.
I have X and Bolt so I guess I can switch to the X if I want to be seen or caught dead (bad pun)! I bought the Bolt as a beater car and hatchback is my style.
Seriously, It is available ...good luck getting the 7500$ tax credit if you put a reservation in for a Model 3 (I did a month ago), holding out for the 35-45k version (dual motor short range) Good luck also getting off 4-5K off MSRP at Tesla.
