It’s a complete and utter trash/fake news. The Chevy bolt sold 1225 unit in August while the model 3 17800. So the model 3 is outselling the bolt almost 15:1. https://insideevs.com/monthly-plug-in-sales-scorecard/

That article is dated September 1, 2017. Last years news. This year, Tesla Model 3 is selling more than BMW or Mercedes cars in the US and ten times Chevy Bolt.

Are you for real? Bolt outselling Model 3? That was numbers from last year.. For the record bolt seems to have peaked at 2000+ cars per month last year and decreased to under 2000 per month since. GM seems pretty content with that.

Or maybe the demand for EV seems to start and stop with Tesla. I wonder how Tesla will do without the lies and hype of futuristic self driving technology
