Reviewer score 80% (normalized by Neofiliac)The 2022 Chevy Bolt EV builds atop an already solid affordable EV formula with improved aesthetics and a more upmarket interior. New infotainment and the option for adaptive cruise fill gaps in the cabin and help to keep this EV competitive. All 2022 Bolts come standard with a rear-view camera, forward pre-collision alerts with pedestrian detection and lane-departure alerts.
Pros
