Description:In this episode of Kilowatt, we cover some surprising developments in the EV world. General Motors has shut down production of its BrightDrop electric delivery vans, citing slow demand despite recent scaling efforts. We also take a look at the heavily updated 2027 Chevy Bolt, which—while maintaining affordability—presents notable engineering challenges. Finally, we explore what Nissan is getting right with the 2026 Leaf and how it positions itself in the evolving EV market. Join us as we unpack the latest shifts in electric vehicle strategy, design, and market expectations.Support the Show:<a href="https://www.supportkilowatt.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.supportkilowatt.com</a>Other Podcasts:<ul><li><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@beyondthepostfm" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Beyond the Post YouTube</a></li><li><a href="https://www.beyondthepost.fm/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Beyond the Post Podcast</a></li><li><a href="https://shows.acast.com/shuffle-playlist" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Shuffle Playlist</a></li><li><a href="https://www.918digital.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">918Digital Website</a></li></ul>News Links:<ul><li><a href="https://electrek.co/2025/10/21/gm-kills-brightdrop-electric-van-production/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">GM kills BrightDrop electric van production, blames ‘slow demand’ as sales were ramping</a></li><li><a href="https://insideevs.com/reviews/776393/2026-nissan-leaf-review-pros-cons/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">What The 2026 Nissan Leaf Gets Right</a></li><li><a href="https://insideevs.com/news/776342/chevy-bolt-engineering-cm-waymo/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Affordable 2027 Chevy Bolt Is A Heavy Update To The Old One.
