About the Chevrolet Bolt EV

The Chevrolet Bolt made history as General Motors’ first mass-market electric vehicle when it launched for the 2017 model year. Developed in collaboration with LG Corporation, the Bolt offered an impressive 238 miles of EPA-estimated range at a starting price under $38,000, making electric mobility accessible to mainstream buyers.

The subcompact hatchback quickly earned acclaim, winning both the 2017 Motor Trend Car of the Year and North American Car of the Year awards. Shoppers considering the Bolt also looked at the Nissan Leaf, Hyundai Kona Electric, and later the Tesla Model 3 as alternatives in the growing affordable EV segment.

Did you know? The Bolt was entirely developed in-house at GM, contradicting rumors that it was merely a rebadged Korean vehicle. Engineers created a skateboard-style platform with the 60 kWh battery pack mounted under the floor, maximizing interior space.

GM expanded the lineup in 2022 with the Bolt EUV, a slightly larger crossover variant offering more passenger and cargo space while maintaining the same electric powertrain. Both models featured a 65 kWh battery pack and a 200-horsepower electric motor. However, a recall related to battery fire risks in 2021 temporarily halted production and led to a comprehensive battery replacement program.

Despite these challenges, the Bolt remained popular with buyers seeking an affordable electric option. Production of the first-generation Bolt and Bolt EUV ended in late 2023 after GM announced plans to transition to its newer Ultium platform technology.

The next-generation Bolt is currently in development and will be built on the Ultium architecture. GM has stated that the new model will use lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery chemistry for improved durability and cost efficiency. It is expected to retain a crossover-style design similar to the outgoing Bolt EUV and target affordability as a key priority, with production planned at the Fairfax Assembly plant in Kansas.

While GM has not yet released final specifications, the company aims for competitive range and faster DC charging speeds compared to the previous generation. The upcoming Bolt is positioned to remain one of the most affordable electric vehicles in the U.S. market, competing against models like the Volkswagen ID.4 and other low-cost EVs entering production.
