Go Electric With the 2021 Chevy Bolt EV

All-electric vehicles seem to be growing in popularity, especially as the number of public charging stations begins to increase. If you’re ready to start driving an all-electric vehicle, check out what the 2021 Chevy Bolt EV has in store for you. In addition to being economical, this fun-to-drive car has lots of features and amenities that make it an exceptional choice in its class.

Unbeatable Performance

Anyone who’s driven the Chevy Bolt can tell you that it doesn’t lack in the power department. Its powerful electric motor is charged by a lithium-ion propulsion battery that together gets you up to 200 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque. You’ll be able to take this car from zero to 60 mph in about 6.5 seconds. All models are equipped with front-wheel drive and have an electronic stability control system with traction control for superior handling and responsiveness.

Charging Options

The big question people have when it comes to all-electric vehicles is “How do I recharge my battery?” This is, of course, a valid concern. In fact, there’s more than one option when it comes to ways in which you can recharge the battery in your 2021 Bolt EV. The standard method that comes with all Chevy Bolt models is the 120-volt portable charging cord. This cord allows you to plug your Bolt EV into any wall socket in your home, and you’ll get about 4 miles of driving range per hour with this charging method.

You can opt to have a 240-volt, 32-amp charging unit installed in your home if you want a faster charging ability without having to go anywhere. One of these units will have to be installed by a professional, but this is the recommended method for charging your Bolt EV. When you need to charge your car on the go, you can find a public DC fast charging station. Using one of these stations will get you about 100 miles of driving range in approximately 30 minutes.

Advanced Technology

Aside from all the advanced technology used for this electric vehicle to get power, you’ll find lots of convenient, high-tech features that make driving one fun and exciting. Connecting your Apple or Android device to your Bolt EV’s infotainment system will allow you to access your favorite apps and playlists when you’re on the road. Use the 4G LTE Wi-Fi hot spot to connect to the internet from wherever you are. Driver screens will help you pinpoint areas of your driving that could be improved to maximize the performance of your vehicle.

Versatile Interior

The interior of the 2021 Chevy Bolt EV is surprisingly spacious and comfortable. It features a 60/40 split-folding rear seat that folds flat into the floor so that you can make the most of the cargo area. When the seats are folded down, you’ll have access to a maximum of 56.6 cubic feet of space for your gear. A false cargo floor gives you another place to keep your stuff that’s out of the way.
