2022 CHEVROLET BOLT IS THE BEST VALUED LONG RANGE EV YOU CAN BUY

EV Channels Review

The 2022 Chevrolet Bolt is presented as an exceptional value proposition in the EV market, particularly for commuters. The reviewer highlights its attractive starting price, especially after potential Canadian federal and provincial rebates, making it significantly more affordable than competitors like the Tesla Model 3. Key improvements for 2022 include updated exterior and interior styling, a new infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and enhanced comfort with redesigned seats. The vehicle offers a practical 417 km (250 miles) of range, with the reviewer noting real-world performance that may even exceed conservative estimates, and the convenience of not needing to charge daily for typical use. Positives include standard safety features, a quiet ride, and brisk acceleration. Criticisms are minor, focusing on the lack of rear air vents, a smaller-than-expected center armrest, and the absence of a sunroof. The reviewer also mentions the upcoming Bolt EUV offers more rear legroom and the Super Cruise system, but the standard Bolt remains the standout for value.
