4,000+ Miles to Fully Charged Live - Chevy Bolt EV Road Trip Pt. 1: Horror in Herkimer

Finally, our first vid covering the 4,272-mile round trip from Boston, MA to Austin, TX for the inaugural Fully Charged Live USA event. This is the longest Bolt EV road trip we've ever undertaken and our first in the new 2020 Chevrolet Bolt EV, which only had 72 miles on the clock when we set off.

Unfortunately, we have to begin a trip containing many highlights with a low, as Electrify America's first of 25 eventual charge session didn't go to plan (to say the least!). Although it was an inauspicious beginning that sowed a few seeds of doubt for the next few hundred miles of the journey, it provides a reality check and contrast to the following 3,500 miles, which were a resounding success for EA and non-Tesla EV travel in general.

This first leg also covers the initial differences of the 2020 Bolt EV compared to our 2017 model, which are subtle but did prove to be useful over the course of so many miles. Part two will be much more encouraging and cover us all the way to Texas over 2.5 days, so don't let this put you off summer road trips when the current restrictions clear up! Rather, this should serve as a reminder of how to plan a non-Tesla EV road trip and why a plan B/fast charger redundancy is so important.

Enjoy, thanks for watching, and please email plugandplayEV@gmail.com if you have any questions about the trip.
