description Chevrolet Bolt EV Overview
The Chevrolet Bolt EV is one of the most efficient and affordable entry points into electric mobility.

help Chevrolet Bolt EV FAQ
How far can a Chevrolet Bolt EV travel on a full charge?
The 2023 Bolt EV carried an EPA-estimated range of 259 miles. Weather, cabin heating, speed, tire condition, and battery age can reduce the distance available in real driving.
Why does Bolt EV fast charging take longer than on newer electric cars?
The Bolt EV's DC fast-charging rate peaks at roughly 55 kW, far below vehicles such as the Hyundai Ioniq 5 that can exceed 200 kW under suitable conditions. That makes the Bolt practical for home charging and regional driving but slower during repeated highway charging stops.
Is the Chevrolet Bolt EV the same vehicle as the Bolt EUV?
No. The Bolt EV is the shorter hatchback, while the Bolt EUV has a longer body, more rear-seat space, and available Super Cruise on certain trims, but slightly less rated range.
Can a used Bolt EV use Tesla Superchargers?
Access depends on General Motors' charging program, the station generation, and use of an approved NACS adapter. The Bolt was built with a CCS1 inlet, so it cannot physically connect to a NACS cable without the correct adapter.
