NextImg:‘23 Chevrolet Bolt EUV has a lot to offer

As EVs are now the norm in Grasso’s Garage, we recognize that each manufacturer is going to have their own thought processes on how an EV should drive, charge, and appear. As many of them historically have looked futuristic, Chevrolet seems to fit right in with the rest.

This week, it’s the 2023 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Premier. Wrapped in Summit White and with red-accents abound, the Bolt is certainly ready to tackle the economy EV market. On the exterior, the Bolt EUV boasts a 4-door hatchback-type styling but with a crossover-type feel.

Ranging 247 miles on a full charge, the Bolt EUV is typical Chevrolet on the interior with its basic infotainment system and easy-to-use adjustments, but for a good price, this basicness is really a good thing. For just over a $30K base price, you get an economy EV with a nice appearing hatchback. Our Bolt EUV came with the Sun and Sound package for $2,495 including a dual panel panoramic sunroof, Bose 7-speaker audio system and navigation. Additionally, for $2,220 our tester included SuperCruise, Chevrolet’s autonomous driving system that was similar to the Cadillac Escalade we drove last year. SuperCruise is a great autonomous driving system and is a leader in the mid-priced market, while Volvo does the best job in the upscale market in my opinion.

Interior wise, we noticed a 10.2 inch HD Color infotainment screen, wireless device charging, keyless start and adaptive cruise control. The seats were basic, yet comfortable, which was similar to the Chevrolet Traverse we tested last year.

As Chevrolet has had a not-so-good reveal with their original Volt and recent generations of the Bolt, the 2023 Bolt EUV hopefully is different. The hatchback Bolt EUV brings a new light to the EV market, offering appearance, price and driving range charge to the table; all of which consumers are most interested in. For basic EV entry level economy, around town needs, the Bolt EUV certainly is a great option and for the price, I am impressed.
