You wrote sales targets. He wrote about expectations and pointed to the inventory as evidence of weakness. (I disagree, given that it's the run-up to summer and the break. Growth combined with the incentives that GM have loaded on the cars in California just means "not wildly successful".).
Semantics. If Bob says "I expect to sell 100 units this month" and someone else says "Bob said his sales target is 100 units this month", you telling me those are 2 completely different statements? The point is no one from GM has ever officially stated a "sales goal/target/expectations", and that Electrek is merely pushing what it thinks was GM's sales goal/target/expectations in order to push the "Bolt sales are weak" narrative to please their pro-TSLA audience.
Really? Where does it say that on the site? Journalism is storytelling, and Internet journalism generally particularly desperate clickbait journalism.
Ok, so you freely admit Electrek is nothing more than a glorified blog that has a set objective as far as the narrative it wants to push about Tesla and other alternative vehicle manufacturers. I'm glad you realize that Electrek is not a legitimate source for unbiased EV news.
He's writing to be read to make money selling readers to advertisers. What are you writing to sell?
I'm not selling anything. I write because I feel like writing.
Blog (noun) - a regularly updated website or web page, typically one run by an individual or small group, that is written in an informal or conversational style.
So, not the 80kW that you were so incredibly certain of because of the wording in the user manual that refers to 80kW chargers?
You were wrong because you ignored the fact that GM was being coy on the question of charging speed.
You were wrong because you chose to believe that the 90 miles in 30 minutes previously stated by GM was superseded information.
You were wrong because you chose not to consider charger rating*.
You were wrong because you _wanted_ to believe.
You were wrong because of _your_ bias.
When did I ever claim that the Bolt could absolutely, definitively charge at 80 kW? IIRC, all I've ever done is bring up the possibility of 80 kW charging SINCE IT'S MENTIONED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. And that the Bolt certainly could charge faster than 50 kW, which has more or less been verified by GM in public statements. All that is missing is the actual real-world charging data, which so far doesn't exist because there are literally 4 CCS stations in the world that charge quicker than 50 kW/125 amps.
And I have charged over 90 real world miles in 30 minutes (over 100 actually, as I have the photos to prove it), but you will write that off and accuse me of engineering results or some nonsense like that.
All your accusations of me being wrong are, well, completely wrong.
Anyway, have you considered that he might not be biased? He might just understand how to make money telling stories to Tesla fans.
Bias (noun) - prejudice in favor of or against one thing, person, or group compared with another, usually in a way considered to be unfair.
I'll let you soak in the definition. Then go back and read any of Frank's articles (especially ones about the Bolt), and tell me again he is not biased in any way.
* Which you feel the effects of every time you use a 100A "50kW" charger.
It's not GM advertising these 100A stations as 50 kW, it's the companies that make them.
