The new Chevrolet Bolt is priced at an affordable $29,990, including destination charges, making it a competitively priced fully electric vehicle. It features a 65 kWh usable lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, offering an estimated range of 255 miles according to GM, though it has not yet received an official EPA rating. A significant improvement over previous models is its faster charging capability, with a peak rate of up to 150 kW, allowing the battery to charge from 10% to 80% in just 26 minutes.
