From One Enthused Chevy Bolt Owner To Another
interview that the Chevy Bolt “is something that has built up a lot of loyalty and equity. So, I can’t say because I don’t discuss product programs, but … that’s an important vehicle in our portfolio.” Is there hope for a Bolt reboot? Current owners want to know so that we can plan future purchases.My Bolt pal asked if I had the new battery, acknowledging that he thought it must be.
When the Bolt EV was introduced in 2017, it had a 60 kWh pack and was EPA-range rated at 238 miles. Then, in 2020, GM increased the battery capacity to 66 kWh, which added 21 miles of EPA-rated range. That made the 2020 Bolt’s official rating 259 miles. However, under the recall and replacement plan, all Bolt EVs get the new larger battery pack. That means the Bolts made in 2017 through 2019 have more capacity than their original pack.We agreed that the Bolt’s range is fine for 95% of travel.
Of course, there’s always an exception to the rule. My new pal described a road trip to southern Maine he took with a trailer hitched to the Bolt, loaded with 2 kayaks. What would’ve been a 3-hour trip in an ICE vehicle extended to 6 hours. He had difficulty distinguishing chargers that were open to the public from those that were restricted to consumers who had purchased there. “Don’t try to charge at a Harley dealership,” he warned, still simmering from being dismissed when in charging need.
