Chevrolet announced today that the Bolt EV, the first affordable
long-range electric car, is now available by order or in stock at
certified dealerships nationwide. Through Aug. 30, 2017, Chevrolet has
sold 11,670 Bolt EVs this year and 12,249 since
the start of sales in December 2016.
Current owners are
praising the all-electric small crossover’s impressive range,
affordability and roominess. “It’s been everything I had hoped!” said
Brian Ro of Columbia, Maryland, who was among the first Bolt EV owners.
“The
CUV-styling fits my family of four just fine, and the EV performance
and 200-plus mile range simply can’t be beat at this price point.”
Owner Maria Mraz of
San Francisco, California, adds, “Everyone who rides in it just loves
it. It’s very modern-feeling and so easy to drive … I’m very happy with
my Bolt EV.”
The Bolt EV has won
nearly 40 independent awards, making it the most-awarded electric
vehicle of the year. Recently named a 2017 Top Safety Pick by the
Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS) when equipped with
available
Driver Confidence II Package, the Bolt EV also earned the coveted
titles of Motor Trend® 2017 Car of the Year, 2017 North American Car of
the Year and Green Car of the Year®, awarded by Green Car Journal.
Starting
at an MSRP of $37,495 before federal tax incentives of up to $7,500
depending upon individual tax situation, the 2017 Bolt EV offers an
EPA-estimated 238 miles of range on a single charge. Standard
features include electronic precision shift, Regen on Demand™ steering
wheel paddle, 10.2-inch-diagonal color touchscreen and an
8-year/100,000-mile (whichever comes first) battery and propulsion
system limited warranty. The top-trim Premier model adds
leather-appointed
seats, front and rear heated seats, Surround Vision, Rear Camera Mirror
and more.
