Chevy Bolt is may be less sexy, but super reliable. Mine has close to 50k on it, and zero issues after the battery swap 5 or 6 years ago. Still get ~300 miles in good weather.

I never once thought I would ever hear Chevy and reliable in the same sentence. Having unfortunately owned a few Chevy ICE's myself.

+1 for the Chevy Bolt. I've got the 2023 EUV, absolutely love it.

However, I've heard that the newer lines are dropping Apple CarPlay & Android Auto support. Which would be a hard no from me.

The used market for EVs is kinda crazy cheap right now though. To OP: I'd highly suggest looking for a used 2023 Chevy Bolt when you're ready.

Yup, 2020 bolt owner here. Bought it used after the recalls for cheapish. It's ugly, but nice to drive and pretty dang practical. Plus it has actual buttons and knobs for AC and volume! Just wish it charged faster for the occasional road trip.
