General Motors Co is ramping up production of Chevrolet Bolt electric cars at a factory north of Detroit and is on track to start delivering vehicles as promised by the end of the year, company officials said on Friday.

Barring a last-minute stumble, GM will be first to offer an electric car with more than 200 miles of driving range at a starting price of less than $40,000 before tax credits. Silicon Valley electric car maker Tesla has said its entry in this new market segment, the Model 3, will launch next year.

    Hello Fit Brother... We bought a Fit after a couple months after they came out in the US, and it's still going (knock on wood) with 215k miles. We liked our Fit form factor so much we traded in our Jeep Compass and leased a HRV last year. The HRV is built on the Fit frame and shares a lot of similarities.
