“I lived in a condo and didn’t have access to home charging”

“I lived in a condo and didn’t have access to home charging”

by Nino Di Cara | Mar 29, 2019 | Owner Experience

By Laura Bryson To be honest, the first time I sat in my (100% electric) Chevrolet Bolt, my reaction was: “Oh! It’s just like any other car!” Of course, there’s so much that’s different about it, but mostly just in how you fuel it. During...
