There are other news outlets reporting this same story. I can post those links if you want, or the official link from the State of California, where the information came from

Oh man, really?????

GM to end production of electric Chevy Bolt, its first mass-market EV, later this year

KEY POINTS
  • General Motors plans to end production of its electric Chevrolet Bolt models by the end of this year, CEO Mary Barra told investors Tuesday.
  • The Chevy Bolt EV and EUV, a larger version of the car, make up the vast majority of the company’s electric vehicle sales to date.
  • The battery cells in the cars are an older design and chemistry than the automaker’s newer vehicles such as the GMC Hummer and Cadillac Lyriq, which utilize GM’s Ultium architecture

i believe the taycan is outselling the 911, so they're living large with it. and unlike ford/gm/etc., they don't choose to lose money selling them.

The EV has been around for 7 years, but the EUV only for 2. Odd that they would discontinue both.
