People don’t get out of their comfort zones as much as they could. But with today’s technology, events, and destinations, road trips are easier to plan than ever! But at the end of the day, how much you enjoy your tip will come down to your vehicle’s onboard features, cargo space, comfort, and convenience. Here are 8 reasons why every great road trip starts with the 2019 Chevy Bolt.
#1. Saving Money
Every road trip comes down to budgeting. When you’re behind the wheel of the 2019 Chevy Bolt you won’t have to worry about filling your gas guzzler, allowing you to splurge elsewhere. These are just some of the many ways you’ll save with the Chevy Bolt:

If you’re looking for a car that will have impressive efficiency for the next decade, then look no further because the Bolt’s astounding electric drive unit will set the standard for years to come.
#2. Cargo Space
Let’s face it, we don’t pack as lightly as we could. “Should I bring extra boots? How many sleeping bags do we need? Will we need to bring the hair dryer?”. But when you’re traveling across the country in your Bolt, you’ll have plenty of space for everything you need and still have room to pick up souvenirs at every stop.
