Look in the manual - it should be available on-line. Most EVs have very little regular maintenance, besides consumables (tires, windshield wipers, etc). Depending on how (if) the battery temperature is regulated, you might need to drain/replace the battery 'thermal management system' coolant every 3...

Just in time for the new Solo (manufactured in B.C. - coincidence? nah !)

Aside from personal preference, if anyone is seriously considering the Bolt EV or the IONIQ Electric, then they will look at things like: 1) Cost for range.

I don't know a lot but yeah I have read that a few times. It comes up a lot in Eracing and other more conventional car reads

The 'Torque' they are discussing is an app. (Notice the upper-case 'T'.)

Most of these chargers are level 2 so it still takes 8-10 hours to charge. I like the sound of level 3 that can recharge your battery in 30 minutes. Is it possible to install level 3 in your garage?
