Chevy Bolt Performance

2021 Chevy Bolt Performance

The Chevy Bolt EV comes with front-wheel drive and a front electric motor that produces 200 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque that offers rapid acceleration and responsive handling. With these capabilities, the Bolt can zip through crowded urban streets and tracks on the highway for comfortable, easy driving.

For long-distance driving, the Bolt EV offers up to 259 miles in a range of conditions. In total, the Bolt gets an EPA-rated 118 MPGe combined city/highway, an EPA-rated 127 MPGe city, and an EPA-rated 108 MPGe highway. The small battery allows for overnight charging and a full charge after about 10 hours.


Interior Space and Comfort

The Bolt EV offers a spacious interior with room for five adults in plush, supportive seats. Because of the hatchback design, passengers can get in and out of the Chevy Bolt EV easily. Driver visibility is excellent due to the large windows. Several interior upgrades are available, including heated front and rear seats and leather upholstery.

In the back, you’ll enjoy 16.9 cubic feet of cargo space in a wide, unobstructed cargo area. If you fold away the second row, the total cargo space expands to 56.6 cubic feet. Between the long driving range and the spacious cargo area, the Bolt EV is perfect for a weekend getaway.


Safety and Technology

2021 Chevy Bolt Technology

The Bolt EV is available with two safety packages, the Driver Confidence I and Driver Confidence II, which bundle desirable safety features. With Driver Confidence I, you get blind-spot monitors, a feature that alerts you to vehicles or obstacles outside of your sightline, and rear parking sensors, which aid in backing into parking spaces or out of driveways. With Driver Confidence II, the Chevy Bolt gets automatic high beams that adjust to low-light situations, active lane control to keep you in your designated lane, and forward-collision warning that alerts you to potential crashes and applies the brakes in an emergency.

Plenty of connectivity technology is available for the Bolt, such as the 10.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system with smartphone integration. Chevy’s infotainment system is one of the best on the market and touted for its user-friendly interface and responsive touchscreen controls. You can upgrade your technology with a Bose premium audio system and wireless smartphone charging pad, so you’re always connected and entertained on the road.
