Bakersfield to Dome Rock in a Bolt EV

Starting Place:
Bakersfield
Destination:
Dome Rock, CA
Dome Rock is located 90 miles from Bakersfield. Bolt EV is suitable for the western divide ahead. Dome Rock is well worth the visit, though we’d recommend going there early and midweek to avoid tourists and climbers and enjoy a near-wilderness experience.

The Bolt’s low center-of-gravity, its regenerative braking, and its responsive acceleration make it a joy to drive it into Sierra Nevada–especially after sheltering-in-place for the week.
