About the Chevy Bolt
The Chevrolet Bolt came on the scene in 2016 to be built for the 2017 model year. Some see it as a successor to the Chevy Volt, a plug-in hybrid sedan that was manufactured and marketed globally from 2010. The Bolt is an all-electric vehicle, offering an impressive range that has even been able to compete with perceived market leaders Tesla.
The Bolt is a hatchback available in many different exterior colors. The comfortable interior features leather seats and trim, a large central infotainment touchscreen interface, a digital driver instrument cluster, and ample storage space (especially when you put the rear seats down). The Bolt works well with any charging solution level 1, 2, or 3 depending on your need, making it flexible enough for most people’s driving lives.
