Obviously, RB isn't going to help in a panic stop. But our HP reviewer found a little planning meant he barely needed to use the brakes at all. Since the only electric car I've ever driven in a golf cart, I find that a little weird. But if you're thinking of a Bolt, you should definitely check out the review on the HP.

 

if you drive smartly, you'll barely even need your brakes at all...
I was taught that when I was a child
by my dad & grampa

I like the Bolt, but the exterior styling...? meh.

 

I used to ride a fixed-gear around Seattle, and did it without brakes for a few years. So I get what you're saying... I can count on one hand the number of times I've had to panic stop in the last year.

 

coast...
get the green lights...
barely use my brakes...
yup... more people should be like us, uh huh
