Chevy Bolt EV sales slowly get back to normal – no sign of production increase
As expected, Chevy Bolt EV sales in the US have dropped significantly in 2018
after a record end of 2017.
正如預期的那樣，2017年結束後，2018年美國的Chevy Bolt EV銷量大幅下降
Now, sales of the all-electric vehicle are slowly going back toward its
normal ~2,000 units per month as there is still no sign of the promised
production increase.
現在，Bolt 的銷量正慢慢緩升至去年的一般狀況~一個月兩千輛，且沒有跡象顯示產量上升
Last month, GM CEO announced that they are increasing Chevy Bolt EV
production, but she didn’t elaborate on how significant an increase it will
be.
上個月，GM CEO宣布他們正在增加 Bolt 的產能，但他並沒有說增加多少。
GM says that it delivered about 26,000 units globally last year – the vehicle
’s first full year of production. A few hundred units went to Canada and a
few more in Europe, but the bulk of the deliveries were in the US.
GM表示，去年全球交付了約26,000輛汽車，這是第一個完整的生產年度。
其中幾百輛到了加拿大和一些歐洲國家，但大部分交付在美國。
It was about in line with expectations of a production capacity of 25,000 to
30,000 units for the Chevy Bolt EV.
這跟Bolt 被預期有年產 25000 ~ 30000 輛的產能相符。
But now deliveries dropped significantly in the US in 2018 and are slowly
climbing back up as GM confirmed today having delivered 1,774 Bolt EVs in
March.
但是現在美國2018年交付量大幅下降，並且正在緩慢回升，因GM今天確認3月份
交付了1,774輛 Bolt EV。
Here’s a chart of Chevy Bolt EV deliveries per month in the US since the
start of production in 2016:

It’s still a significant increase over the same month last year. However,
the low levels of sales in early 2017 were attributed to production
constraints as the company was ramping up production at its Orion plant in
Michigan and its important partner, LG, was ramping up production of its
electric powertrain components in Korea.
與去年同月相比，仍有顯著增長。 然而，2017年初的低銷量歸因於產能限制，
因為該公司在密歇根州的Orion工廠正在擴大生產，其重要合作夥伴LG正在增加
其在韓國的電動動力總成零部件的生產。
Aside from the few hundred units per month going to Canada and Europe, the
Detroit-based automaker also confirmed plans to deliver 5,000 units in South
Korea this year, which could explain the plan to increase production.
除了每月數百輛前往加拿大和歐洲外，這家總部位於底特律的汽車製造商還確認
計劃今年在南韓交付5000輛，這可能可以解釋增加產量的計劃。
心得/說明：
不知不覺 Bolt 也上市一年多了
但第一個完整的生產年度竟然全年只有交車26000輛
比想像中的要少很多，平均一周只生產了500輛
而今年是第二個生產年度，看來狀況也沒有變的比較好
以續航里程來說，比 Leaf(二代)要好很多，甚至比入門版的 Model 3 還要好上一些些
不曉得是 GM 根本無心賣這輛車呢？ 還是 Bolt 不對美國消費者的胃口
