Fear Mongering About Range Anxiety Has To Stop — CT Governor Calls Out EV Opponents::Several state governors are fighting fear mongering as they attempt to reduce transportation emissions in their states.
I own a fucking Bolt. I don’t hate EVs. It’s difficult to get the advertised range when GM insists on binding it with a software update that prevents charging above 80% as a workaround while they are still sorting out their battery recall years later.

That’s a precationary limit because of a pending recall. The batteries aren’t degraded to 80%.
You can’t use it above 80%, the reason you can’t doesn’t make a difference for your ability to drive the car.
