The Bolts were 25,000 before GM discontinued them.

Yup, and I'm looking at them. But it's important to point out that they're not really discontinued, Chevy said they're planning to upgrade the battery packs and relaunch, but they're currently focusing on other car offerings. So I'm guessing it'll relaunch in a year or two.

They weren't meant to come back. It was one of those cases of customers complaining enough.

But why though? They were extremely popular...

Trucks make more money. They were changing the factory to truck production.
