https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/19/canada-is-set-to-have-one-the-worlds-biggest-green-hydrogen-plants.html

 

Quote

Thyssenkrupp said the new facility will be constructed in Varennes, Québec, and will be able to generate 11,100 metric tons of green hydrogen per year.

The hydrogen and oxygen produced by the unit — the oxygen is a by-product of the process — is set to be used at a biofuel plant to generate biofuels for use in transportation. Commissioning of the green hydrogen facility is slated for the end of 2023.

ICE is not going anywhere anytime soon. Ive read from multiple sources that hydrogen is preferred over electric in the trucking transportation business.

Shell has announced that they hit peak oil production / gas production in 2019 and have been for the last 5 years diversifying their business to cover from green energy such as wind farms to charging businesses to carbon capture to help other businesses reduce their carbon foot print.

Shell like BP Oil plans to be carbon neutral by 2050.

Shell admits it's past peak oil, eyes carbon offsets as a business opportunity (greencarreports.com)

Affordable EVs are here, perfect for @ocnblu You can get yours on Alibaba for only $3,200 and they will ship it to you for your doorstep delivery.

They do have an interesting EUV too. Check out the web site for this EV Startup.

I know reality is hard, but those are all renders.  They're NOT REAL.

And if you actually looked at the web site you would see that it clearly states these are renders of what the actual EVs are expected to look like as they get things started for this EV startup.

Awesome way to plow your side walk, driveway, etc.

 

@Robert Hall This would make clearing your driveway fun and probably easier.

Looks like for sale @ Tamiya USA

Seems redundant and not different enough from the regular Bolt.  Longer wheelbase = more rear legroom, but it has the same, or LESS cargo space than the regular model, plus it still has that uneven load floor... and NO AWD.  What is the point?

"...automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, following distance Indicator and front pedestrian braking"

Oh; no thank you!!

EUV does seem like a minimal effort. Biggest positive change is the price- a first in a BE vehicle (sticker actually went down).

While I agree about the lack of AWD (weight was clearly the issue here as it kills range), the rest of your post lacks context and shows that you are possibly nitpicking certain things, like the load floor. Example:

Bolt EUVF01A2999-ECD2-46B1-B89A-42930C63E081.jpeg.e89e45ad2adbc7ffbee8976d3faa587b.jpeg

Same “issue” and one that is common on a lot of CUVs. 

 

And while its not my cup of tea, at least the entry Bolt dropped $5500 in price which is something certain members about complained over since day one.

Here it is with the flimsy false floor removed.  Pain in the butt.  Also, looks like they've gone from white to black on the interior this time.  I just do not see the purpose of the EUV, (or keeping the original, whichever way you want to slice it) I mean it has more rear seat legroom, but LESS CARGO ROOM than the original.  Silly duplication of efforts.

Again, that’s in most CUVs and it has a real easy solution. Leave the flat floorboard cover in place. The area shown underneath is for stashing small stuff or carrying groceries more securely anyway. My old Magnum was like that as are a lot of hatchbacks and CUVs. The Envision you were hyping the other day has a similar removable floorboard cover.

The Envision is built in China which makes it persona non grata.  I was only reminiscing about the Grand National because my local dealer has a blacked-out Envision ST.  The Envision is not a pimple on a Regal Grand National's butt cheek.  There is a distinction there.

As far as the Bolt/EUV, Chevy went to the trouble of completely separate exterior body stampings between the two... but they are so similar, I dare say the typical consumer will not be able to tell them apart.  Baffling.

I haven't seen the specs, but I'd have to agree; I was picturing a much larger size differentiation and from the pics, the rear cargo area of the Bolt & Bolt EUV look... indistinguishable. Rear seats folding flat would be ideal, but almost no hatch / sedan's do. I don't think that would ever be a 'make or break' issue tho.

I didn't have an issue with the Bolt's styling, I think the make-over improves it nicely. This isn't on the Ultium battery, tho, since the range is the same, correct?

Price drop ($36,620 > $31,995) is excellent. Have to see if kia follows suit now.

Continues to be built on the old Bolt's BEV2 platform, it appears range stays the same, a little worse on the big, brawny EUV.

So for an extra $2k, all you get is a little bit more rear legroom, and the tiniest bit stronger styling (taller hood, more horizontal beltline)... ZERO extra utility.

May as well buy the regular Bolt, as it is only about $12k more than the late, lamented Cruze hatchback.  Super affordable.

Don’t see anything about cargo room difference between the two but the EUV Bolt is six inches longer (2.9” longer wheelbase) and rear seat legroom is three more inches than the standard Bolt (39 vs 36). It should be noted that the XT5, which is 20” longer overall than the Bolt EUV, has 39.1” of rear legroom.

I don't remember complaints about the Bolt's rear seat space, but I wasn't paying attention. 39" is decent/good. Other 3 inches could be in the rear cargo area, or split between the nose & tail. 
I would've thought more like 10-12" longer, to make a noticeable difference. 

The Buick Encore GX is only 3 inches longer than a standard Encore while there’s 6 inches between the two Bolt models. Not really that big of a deal IMO and that “not quite as long” length may be because of a future models that will be longer.

I will have to default to Ocnblu and the ICE crowd here, this is cool, but I am not an "Alpha" male. For the same 32 grand this next summer I could get a Wrangler or full size Bronco and a decent set of tires. 

Or more likely, ten grand for a used Honda Africa Twin and 20 grand to go travel. 

Thanks for thinking of me though!

Interesting that Honda is doing the same thing here that Mazda did when they brought out that other favorite car, the Miata. Mazda brought the miata out in Red, White and Blue, and then silver...Currently, they offer grey, black and....red white and blue on the Miata. 

The Japanese are very good at playhing a patriotic cord with Asian products...

Cruze hatchback was a pig in a poke though. Best thing the domestics did was discontinue cars like the Dodge Avenger, Ford Focus, Chevy Cruze, and The like. They just screamed mediocre. Now, if we had gotten the gorgeous current Euro Focus, especially in ST and dare I say, an ST wagon, or dare I say an RS variant, we might see two blue oval products in my driveway. 

Ford, as much as I hated them and still despise a lot of things they have done, really has to work for my business. Good on them that they currently ahve the Mustang, Ranger, and Bronco as products I would be extremely interested in buying.

I think Bolt EV is completely redundant.  EUV slightly bigger and seems besides the extra size they are completely identical, price is not much different either.  Weird how GM does certain things.

They spent a lot on marketing the edsel also. I wish Ford well, let's see how this actually sells. they may well go back to building Platinium F350's as their main source of income, and give up on EV's.

 

I wish them well with this though, looks like a fantastic product.

It has a proper little ice mpower plant, so C and G approved. We once had to pull a bunch of data lines over the ceiling (drop ceiling ) 20 feet above a retail store. Getting in and setting up ladders was going to be a bitch. One of the guys had an idea, we busted out a block or two on either side of that retail space...above the ceiling...drove across with a battery powered small toy truck towing a string...pulled a rope with the string....pulled the data lines across. Done in 3 hours with a job that was bid for four days. Ate steak on the company credit card, went home and made sure the wife had an "enjoyable" evening.

You’re assuming that that it would be a Bolt+12 when it could just be a completely different model entirely that is larger, which is what should happen or yes, it would be very redundant. Either way, despite the usual naysayer, both models are cheaper than the one model they replace so that is a step in the right direction.

I actually have a lot of faith in GM do do the right thing at the point in time, far more than I have had for awhile. 

That being said, when it comes to GM's current offerings, give me a ZR2 Colorado or give me nothing at all...

This just effin rocks. Right now, in addition to the cars I have loved for forever...GTI, Mustang, Miata...the only things with sppeal to me on the market right now are midsize trucks and Hot Hatches like the Civic Type R. And by extension, Wrangler and Bronco...which are kissing cousins of the Ranger and Gladiator.

Well I always liked the Bolt, I've always said it is the most accessible EV on the market, and it continues to be so.  The MCE improves it stylistically, if not functionally.  The lower MSRP might spur a few thousand more sales per yerr, but honestly it is still $10k overpriced for what it is... a compact hatchback.  If Barra wishes to give a good number of customers away in her EV virtue signaling quest, that is her prerogative.  I don't see it ending well for her when she has no $18k vehicle at Chevrolet to sell, and EV is flat out not practical for "everyone", let alone EVERYONE.

So....if Im to understand, Chevrolet is actually offering a brand new electric vehicle, that actually went DOWN in price, yet here we are, questioning the dimensions of it and how closely it resembles the older model? With a few shytty reasons to hate it. (BIG surprise there...)  

Range staying the same, the vehicle becoming slightly bigger, BUT the price dropping a WHOPPING 5 grand yet we are bitchin' about useless things. A REAL 5 grand too. Not a phantom price that the consumer will NEVER see...

The point is, as I called it, AFFORDABILITY for EVs starts and ends with the old guard OEMs.  The ones that are established with factories built loooong ago, with the expertise in manufacturing quickly and with economies of scale.   

I wanna know why we arent focusing on the, what I deem to be, a BREAKTHROUGH in the START of AFFORDABILITY of EVs coming from General Motors..

THIS on the heals of Tesla announcing a 25 thousand dollar EV...

https://electrek.co/2021/01/08/tesla-25000-electric-car-coming-sooner-than-we-thought/

I think talking about a REDUCTION in price for EVs seems a more interesting conversation than what you folk have been doing...

But that is just me, I guess...

And while some still bring up the price being too high when compared to say, a Chevy Cruze, they are ignoring what the Bolt offers standard and what the Cruze NEVER had. And I quote,

 

The bow-tie brand also offers the Bolt EUV with a sunroof (a first for any Bolt-badged model), surround-view camera, adaptive cruise control, and Super Cruise, the driver-assist system that enables hands-free driving on more than 200,000 miles of designated roads in the United States and Canada.”

 

 

So its not really a “$10K” price difference between the Bolt and defunct Cruze (which in higher trims was closer to $30K than $20K btw) when you compare apples to apples instead of apples to obvious oranges.

I have zero motivation to be on any side of any fence.

I consider vehicle size to be important when going off road or into back country areas or in driving in urban environments. I actually like the Trail Boss better in some ways, but size would push me into the ZR2 if I was dropping 50 large on a truck. 

Or a Ranger Tremor, or Gladiator. I am non descriminatory when it comes to midsize trucks.

Delusional with a CAPTIAL D, Days of $18K auto's are over. EVERYTHING is more expensive especially due to a FAILED Trade war that increased costs for US Consumers. Facts! Welcome to the 21st Century!

Driving is a privilege earned and NOT a right. 

We have already covered the average cost of an auto and no company will go backwards. Your $25K auto is the new $15K auto. Reality sucks, but you have a choice, further education, further career growth or stagnant income.

Hey there, we noticed you're using an ad-blocker. We're a small site that is supported by ads or subscriptions. We rely on these to pay for server costs and vehicle reviews.  Please consider whitelisting us in your ad-blocker, or if you really like what you see, you can pick up one of our subscriptions for just $1.75 a month or $15 a year. It may not seem like a lot, but it goes a long way to help support real, honest content, that isn't generated by an AI bot.

See you out there.
