Chevrolet Bolt EV
Subcompact HatchbackProduct Gallery
Product Overview
Chevrolet Bolt EV is an entry-level subcompact hatchback in production from 2016 to 2021. It was powered by 200hp of electric twisting power aided by batteries from 60kWh to 66kWh.
Compared to its spiritual predecessor, the Spark EV, the Bolt EV is similarly basic. It has an arguably worse exterior design, though notably more space inside. The chassis remains uninspiring, and semi-independent suspensions are kept.
On the plus side, Chevy made sure that usable range is available on the Bolt EV.

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
- More affordable than the 1LT base model
- New infotainment features
Cons
- No hands-free Super Cruise highway driving assist
