Chevy Bolt EUV

The Bolt EV is not coming back in Ultium format, according to recent statements made by GM. Instead, GM will resurrect the larger Bolt EUV and place it right alongside the Equinox EV in the latest example of the long line of inexplicable moves by GM in the EV space.

Finally, GM’s CEO Mary Barra announced when we can expect the next-gen Chevy Bolt EV to hit the market. The affordable EV will reemerge on GM’s Ultium platform in 2025.

This week, GM said it’s pushing back Silverado EV production at its Orion plant by a year; which gives it a perfect opportunity to extend the life of the Bolt in its best year of sales yet.

General Motors is recalling certain charging cords given to 2022-2023 Chevy Bolt EUV buyers over the risk of being shocked. The recall affects nearly 10,000 charging cables in the US provided as part of a package.

Your last chance to order the 2023 Chevy Bolt EUV with the Sky Cool Gray interior is coming up. General Motors is discontinuing the current generation, but you can still get your hands on one of the most affordable EVs in the US.

Looks like Domino’s has snatched up more 2023 Chevy Bolts before they disappear – the pizza delivery giant is adding a few hundred more to its electric delivery fleet in the US.

The time is ticking if you plan to buy the Chevy Bolt EV or EUV. GM is discontinuing the Bolt electric car later this year, and the last day to get your order in is coming up.

2020-2022 Chevy Bolt owners, starting yesterday evening, began receiving messages that their high voltage battery/module replacements would no longer be happening. Instead, a software diagnostics tool would be used to verify if the batteries had problems before a replacement would be performed. As you might imagine, affected Bolt owners are up in arms.

GM – along with its earnings announcement this morning – also announced the end of the Chevy Bolt EV and EUV with the last cars rolling off the Orion assembly line “late this year”. This marks the end of the Bolt EV as the most affordable/capable EV in the US market and a pioneering electrification milestone.

General Motors shared Monday that it now leads the industry in the number of EV models that qualify for the full $7,500 tax credit. GM expects its entire lineup of electric vehicles under the MSRP cap to be eligible for the full EV tax credit in 2023.

GM released its 2022 year-end sales update and is touting the humble Chevy Bolt’s best sales year ever, calling the Bolt and Bolt EUV the “#1 mainstream EV series” in Q3 and Q4.

GM has announced a price bump on the 2023 Chevy Bolt EV and EUV, citing higher production costs. But the increase is lower than expected and lower than price increases across the rest of the industry, meaning Electrek’s Vehicle of the Year is still a screaming deal.

The Chevy Bolt is already a great enough deal to get our Electrek Vehicle of the Year award, but after the US Treasury delayed its guidance on battery sourcing requirements, that deal might be even better – but only for the next couple of months.

Update: Treasury finally released its battery guidance, but now that everything has shaken out, it looks like the Chevy Bolt still qualifies for the full $7,500 credit. So the Bolt is still a screaming deal, as long as you can find one.

The lowest-priced EV in the US is somehow also one of the best. Now in its sixth year, the Bolt EV is also seasoned, having worked through a battery fiasco/recall and significant lapses by GM’s decision-makers while receiving modest but significant updates.

With a clean bill of health, the Bolt is now a huge outlier in bang-for-buck. But the 2023 Bolt is also quick, fun to drive, useful, and often more so than cars twice its price. In fact, I think we should be looking to the diminutive Bolt as the future of transportation.

GM shared its Q3 2022 financial report today, which is highlighted by an EBIT-adjusted $4.3 billion bolstered by a quarterly revenue of $41.9 billion. As a result, the American automaker has reaffirmed its full-year earnings guidance as it continues to scale its Ultium platform and expand EV production throughout its marques.

The Chevy Bolt lineup is getting a massive price cut for 2023, dropping from $31,500 to $25,600 (before the $995 destination fee).

This means the Chevy Bolt will have a lower MSRP than the base model Nissan Leaf, though the Leaf still qualifies for the US federal EV incentive, whereas the Bolt does not.

GM has finally restarted production on the Bolt EV and EUV lines after being out of production for the better part of a year due to an issue with its LG battery cells.

GM will bring the Chevy Bolt EV and EUV back into production in the week of January 24, 2022. Production is currently paused as GM sorts out a battery recall on both models.

Following previous news that it was halting all Bolt EV and EUV production until battery supplier LG can supply defect-free cells, General Motors (GM) has announced an extended pause into October. The decision follows a recall of Chevy Bolt EVs over battery issues resulting in twelve reported fires.

GM’s new 2022 Chevy Bolt EV and BoltEUV have received their official EPA ranges, and it’s pretty much on the mark except for the electric crossover coming in a bit short.
