UK Unions have told the news that manufacturing is on the brink of Collapse due to inaction from the government. https://www.msn.com/en-us/video/tunedin/uk-manufacturing-industry-on-brink-of-historic-collapse/vi-BB15lU7K?ocid=msedgntp Seems they think every auto company in UK will be gone if the gov does not respond.

Overall, I tolerate the masks, I find it hard to breath through my N95 mask and the wife who is Korean and used to masks as are our kids have washable ones and so use them when in stores, but then put them into a paperbag upon getting back into the auto, then hand sanitizer before touching anything else in the auto. I have tried the paper ones, tried the cloth ones and the big size of my face causes the exhaled air to go up and fog my glasses, so back to the N95 which has a rubber seal under my eyes so it does not affect my glasses, breath in through my nose, out through the mouth to go out the front exhaust port. Over all Tolerable as I said, Other than our Costco runs and Korean grocery store run, the once a month run to Home Depot, anything else is Amazon and we stay socially distant from all family and friend for now till a vaccine is available. Just not taking the chances as so many others in HOT states of infection are. Zoom calls with family and friends works for us.

WOW ? https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2020-coronavirus-cases-world-map/

? Wonder how they are sanitizing the rental auto's with Covid-19 raging in Florida?

This is what I have heard here from the local collision repair shop, they say no one really likes them on the inside as too tight and when it comes to a collision, they seem to crumple like a Bud Light Beer Can making repairs very hard. Wonder if this is due to the design of the unibody construction. Seems to be a throw away auto if in an accident.

So your saying that $249 a month for 36 months is too much for people to afford a Bolt? Looking at the time machine of past, GM had it at $349 last summer. Even that is much cheaper than many other ICE options. I think the bigger issue is the lack of Marketing by GM for the Bolt and the same for Nissan as the leaf is in the same price range. Yes I agree with you that Tesla are way over priced for what you get, but I think in many regards, the lack of information, marketing and dealer training is what also holds back EV sales. IMHO
