I just sold my 2017 Leaf 30 S for over $19,000 to Carvana - the check cleared so it’s not a dream.
I had been looking to replace my Leaf with another one but the pickings are limited and some dealers are selling over MSRP which is not something I would do. The kicker for me for the Bolt was the new tax law which means the Bolt will once again be eligible for the $7,500 purchase incentive as of January 2023, although the full amount is an unknown right now. At least the Bolt will get $3,750 at a minimum.
As to pricing, the Bolt EUV I have on order will run me about $29,000, less Fed and State incentives which could net me $9,750. So my Carvana sale and incentives give me $28,750 (hopefully!) which would make the Bolt purchase a wash!
The best I could do for the same money would be a Leaf 40. With the Bolt’s higher range, it’s a no-brainer to go with the Bolt.
