First pictures of my new Bolt

My dealer informed me my new Bolt came in yesterday evening. I asked him to send me some pics so I could tide myself over until I pick it up next Monday.

Cannot. Wait.

Just one option I wish they would offer, roof and hood panels that contain solar cells to increase range.

Be safe out there.

The power delivered by full sunlight is a bit more than 1 kW/m^2 and good solar panels might be 20% efficient. Illuminating 2 square meters of solar panels will add energy at a rate of 400 W at best. It's not nothing, but a typical power draw rolling down the road is ten times that. Put another way, over 8 hours that would work out to 3.2 kWh, which even on my Volt would support maybe 10 miles' driving.

How do you like your Bolt so far? By the way, I dig the color.
