How it looks when you see on the street: The Bolt was a big deal when it first came out — an EV for the masses. The EUV Bolt is the stepping-stone version of the Bolt as it squeezes out the popular small-crossover segment before the next wave of EVs come from GM.

How it makes you feel when you get in: It’s a well-behaved crossover that feels like the average small SUV experience — a good thing for an all-electric vehicle.

How it drives: Quiet, smooth, moderate power, and good pickup. It has the added bonus of an optional handsfree highway driving, introduced on GM’s Cadillac brand models.

Space for people and things: The cabin is more spacious than the Bolt hatchback, which means there’s a slight sacrifice on cargo on the reconfigured trunk.

Best Features: Super Cruise option featured on the Launch edition.

What makes it stand out: The self-driving system and the bump up from the slightly smaller Bolt sedan.

What should you compare it to: Tesla Model Y, Ford Mach-E, Hyundai Kona EV

How much does it cost: It starts at $34,000 for the base LT, and the Launch edition starts at $43,000, matching it against more luxe EV crossovers.
