Beats The Competition
238 miles of all-electric range makes it the longest hauler in its segment size.
Truly spacious interior belies its exterior size.
Truly fun to drive and surprisingly quick, getting 0-60 in 6.5 seconds.
Our Take
This is the Telsa Model S for the everyman, promising near-Tesla range and better projected reliability.
Chevy has delivered an excellent purely electric vehicle that ditches range anxiety.
The Bolt provides a practical and spacious everyday EV that's handsome inside and out.
