2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Price, MPG, Release Date
2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Price, MPG, Release Date – Okay, let’s get this out of the way: just as a two-seat sports car can’t haul a nuclear family, an electric vehicle (EV) isn’t for everyone – at least not at this point. But if one is on your radar, you need to look at my tester, the 2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV, which is shorthand for “electric utility vehicle.” 2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Price
The Bolt hatchback was redesigned for 2025, while the EUV is a new addition for the model year. It comes in two trims, starting with the LT at $41,998, including a non-negotiable delivery fee of $1,800. I drove the upper-level Premier at $45,498, plus options that took it to $51,003. The price will be reduced by applicable tax rebates at the federal and provincial levels where they’re offered.
2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Redesign and Update Plan
Exterior and Interior
The Bolt EUV has all the inherent practicality of a hatchback, although it has slightly less cargo space than the Bolt with its rear seat up – 462 L in the EUV versus 470 L in the Bolt, since most of its extra length is dedicated to rear-seat legroom. The rear 60/40 seat folds down for larger cargo. Since there’s no spare tire under the cargo floor – a spare adds weight and so you get a mobility repair kit instead – there’s a false floor that can hide items under it, or it can be flipped up or removed for larger items. Small-item storage includes an open compartment under the centre console. 2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Price
2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Specs
The features list on both trims includes automatic climate control, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, 10.2-inch infotainment screen, eight-inch configurable gauge cluster, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless phone charger, cargo privacy cover, and heated front seats and steering wheel. 2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Price
The Premier further adds rain-sensing wipers, heated rear seats, ventilated front seats, leather upholstery, and ambient lighting. The top trim can also be optioned with hands-free functionality for the adaptive cruise, as mine was for $2,495. While it isn’t a fully autonomous system, it can be used on pre-mapped divided highways – right now about 24,000 km of them in Canada, and 297,000 in the U.S. It works very well, but you still have to pay attention, with a camera on the steering column watching your eyes to make sure you do.
Engine and Performance
The Bolt EUV contains an electric motor producing 200 horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque, fed by a 65-kWh battery and exclusively driving the front wheels. It’s surprisingly peppy when you ask for quick acceleration or highway passing, and will actually squeal the tires if you stomp the throttle. However, it isn’t intended as a sports machine, and it has excellent everyday-driving manners, with smooth and linear acceleration under moderate throttle.
2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Fuel Economy
Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) has officially rated the Bolt EUV for 397 kilometers on a full charge. This is greater than the Kia Niro EV at 385 km and the Nissan Leaf at 240 to 349 km, depending on the model, but less than the smaller Bolt at 417 km or the Hyundai Kona EV at 415 km. Of course, there are many variables that affect actual range. The Bolt EUV has a gauge that provides an estimate of the maximum range in perfect circumstances and the minimum range in less favorable ones. 2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Price
Energy consumption estimates stand at 16.8 kWh/100 km in city driving, 20.1 on the highway, and 18.3 in combined driving. On a 240-volt charger, the battery takes about seven hours to charge, while a public DC fast-charger can add about 160 km of range in 30 minutes
2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Safety Features
The standard features on both trim levels include ten airbags, automatic high-beam control, lane-keep assistance, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, emergency front braking, and the high-definition backup camera that comes standard on all new cars. Additionally, the Premier is equipped with adaptive cruise control and surround-view monitoring. 2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Price
2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Price and Release Date
Even without its available rebates, the Bolt EUV and its price tag of $41,998 to $45,498 stacks up favourably to its rivals. A Nissan Leaf is approximately $41,000 to $49,698; a Kia Niro EV runs from $46,790 to $56,490; and the Hyundai Kona EV is $46,224 to $51,324 – all prices with freight included. 2025 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Price
The Bolt EUV carries a comprehensive warranty of three years/60,000 km, but the battery and electrical propulsion components are covered for eight years/160,000 km. I really like the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EUV. It’s fun to drive, comfortable, has good range, and its controls are easy to use. It’s a great little car for downtown commuting but can handle a day’s drive out beyond the city limits, and it’s intelligently priced in comparison to its competition. If your plans are for plug-in, this one should definitely be on your list.
