Although it's funny that many major media car reviewers, including 2 very popular Tesla Bloggers, and Woz, who don't mention any seat discomfort.
You are probably safer just saying GM killed the electric car, and quote the movie. That is way more effective FUD.
Monthly Update for March 2017 - 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV Long-Term Road Test
""These might be the least comfortable seats I can remember sitting in. They're way too narrow, and the back is shaped for a much shorter person than me. In addition, the padding is very thin. The combination of wrong shape and thin padding meant that the hard plastic was giving me intense sore spots. I really cannot remember ever being less physically comfortable in a driver seat, which is insane because the seats in the Volt are perfectly comfortable."
BOLT SEAT ISSUE - no DATA thread - Page 5 - Chevrolet Bolt EV Forum
"I absolutely believed the seat issue was a farce until I rented a Bolt for a day. There was a problem, in my opinion.
Not severe, not painful, but something that .I would have to deal with every single day. So I passed on the Bolt, got another Volt instead."
"I just bought my Bolt over the weekend. The first bolt I sat in, the seat on passenger side felt like it was digging into my hip. The bolt in the show room, on the drivers side had the seat digging into the hip feeling. The 3rd bolt that I sat in, had no seat problems and just drove it 430 miles with no problems."
"I think a sadist designed the seats in the Bolt. I've had mine a week and I'm really miserable. I haven't had this much back pain in 35 years, when I was disabled by a back injury."
The Front Seats - OUCH! - Chevy Bolt EV Forum
"The front seats are really awful.
My wife and I test drove the car last week for roughly 5 minutes and loved it. We came home in a leased LT.
The next day, 10 minutes into her first drive, my wife said "wow these seats are really uncomfortable" and 15 minutes in she was in pain. Both of us are not big ( 34 inch waists). There is a plastic railing underneath the seat just jams into your hip and makes driving anywhere more than 5 minutes, not a pleasurable experience. It doesn't hurt me so much , as long as i concentrate to sit in the middle of the seat, but comfortable it is certainly not. and why should have to concentrate to sit in the middle of the seat on a 40K car? Sucks because we love everything else about the car.
Now what do i do.... wonder if i can get out of the lease after 24 hours."
GM fanbois are exhausting.
