After 130,000 Miles - Is Our Chevrolet Bolt EV Still GOOD?

We know that Nikki may have misread her odometer in a previous video (for which she's eternally sorry) - but her 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV Premiere has just rolled over 130,000 miles. Given that she's testing multiple things in it right now - including a new 12-Volt Lithium-Ion Phosphate Battery, ceramic coating, FrogPilot AND Nokian Remedy WRG5s, we figured it was time for a quick update. Here's how the Bolt is handling, what's gone wrong, and what we'd like to change in the future! ---- 00:00 - Introduction 00:57 - Nikki's a fangirl 02:50 - This is its second battery (because of a recall) 04:12 - How things are after 130,000 miles 05:37 - How our Nokian WRG5 Remedies are behaving 07:19 - Battery Health 09:02 - Interior - and how it's holding up 10:53 - Steering Wheel starting to look old 11:35 - Open Pilot/Frogpilot/StarPilot 14:35 - Daily use - Do we long-distance with it? 17:00 - Update on the Ceramic Coat 18:28 - Qualityof life improvements 22:18 - Telematics problems 24:58 - Should you get one? 27:34 - Thanks, and Goodbye! --- Links: We put a Comma AI in our Bolt EV:    • How To Teach A 2017 Bolt EV To Drive Itsel...   Ceramic Coating our Bolt EV:    • Re-Energize Your Old EV, Part 2: Ceramic C...   We install Ohmmu's 12-Volt battery:    • Long Term Review (Intro) : Are These EV 12...   Nokain WRG5 - Is this the REMEDY? -    • Winter Tires Can Be A Pain For EV Owners -...   Air filter Nikki Uses: https://www.boschautoparts.com/p/hepa... ---- Presenter: Nikki Gordon-Bloomfield.
