2022 Chevy Bolt EV
The all-new 2022 Chevy Bolt EV has arrived with a fully redesigned interior, updated exterior, and lower price. More comfort and functionality are part of the fresh style of the interior, which provides upgraded seats, new technology, and has a quiet cabin with solar-absorbing glass to regulate the interior temperature. Several thousand dollars of savings on the purchase price in comparison to the previous model year are reason enough to consider owning your first-ever EV. With seating for five, the 2022 Bolt EV hatchback offers flexible cargo space and numerous packages for customization to suit any buyer’s needs.
Two trims are available for the 2022 Bolt EV: 1LT and 2LT. Both trims come standard with an eight-inch configurable driver information display which provides necessary details about battery life and driving range. With the Power Gauge, the 2022 Bolt EV displays how energy is distributed as you drive, while the Confidence Gauge will report the driving range available. Other features can be viewed through the infotainment screen to inform the driver on what may be impacting driving range, such as weather or driving habits, as well as energy use history so drivers can learn how to best adjust driving habits or patterns to get the most out of battery life.
Every 2022 Bolt EV is equipped with a 65 kWh battery pack paired to a 150-kilowatt permanent magnet electric motor that propels the EV. Impressive power can be harnessed from a drivetrain that makes 200 hp with 266 lb-ft of torque, with a Sport Mode that offers even more verve to acceleration when you want it. New styling for the exterior gives a fresh face to the 2022 Bolt EV, from the LED front headlights to the taillights that present a more mature appeal. Standard 17-inch aluminum wheels are fitted with Michelin Energy Saver all-season tires that have self-sealing capability so you can get home if you puncture a tire. With so many updates and savings, the 2022 Bolt EV is just the beginning of electric vehicle affordability and convenience that will allow everyone to drive emission-free.

Powertrain and Range
Silent Performance
If you have never driven an electric vehicle, one of the first things you may discover is how quiet it is. The electric motor doesn’t have the same type of mechanical parts as a gas-powered engine, and without the need for combustion, the vehicle operates in near silence. Electric vehicles today tend to be energetic in their responsiveness, and the 2022 Bolt EV will offer plentiful power when your foot touches the pedal for effortless acceleration. A driving range of 259 miles gives buyers exceptional freedom for travel, particularly in cities where regenerative braking can recharge the battery to extend battery life while you drive. In addition to braking with the pedal, the 2022 Bolt EV also has the option of one-pedal driving, which automatically brakes as soon as your foot lifts from the accelerator, another means to capture energy. A paddle on the steering wheel allows the driver to brake more aggressively when more braking power is needed, giving the driver three ways to recapture energy for retaining battery life.
Convenient Charging
To fully charge your battery after driving, Chevy offers buyers of the 2022 Bolt EV a special offer to cover the cost of installation of a home rapid-charging station. Once installed, simply plug in your Bolt EV like you would your smartphone to charge the battery. Charging the battery if it is depleted can take up to seven hours, though most of the time, drivers will find it takes much less time when using the Bolt EV for daily driving. When you’re on the go, utilize any one of over 40,000 fast-charging stations that can add up to 100 miles of driving range in about 30 minutes. A standard feature of the 2022 Bolt EV is location-based charging that knows when you arrive at home and can be set to charge at a time when electrical use is less expensive.
Standard for all models, the 2022 Bolt EV has a dual charging capability that gives more freedom to take your vehicle anywhere. The charge port can easily change from the rapid-charging Level 2 adaptor to a Level 1 adaptor so that the Bolt EV can be charged via a three-prong home outlet. Though charging this way takes longer, it means that anywhere you go, you have the capability to charge your vehicle even if there are no charging stations available. To make driving your Bolt EV simpler, use the myChevrolet app with Energy Assist to keep track of battery life, driving range, and where to locate charging stations on your route. This app can also provide information about weather impacts on battery life and how long you can expect to charge your battery at a nearby station.
Convenience and Cargo Space
A Pleasant Driving Experience
With the new design of the 2022 Bolt EV, conveniences abundantly appoint the interior for a pleasant driving experience every time you travel. From the exterior heated mirrors and remote starting feature to the new electronic gear shifter and automatic climate control, every time you go places in your Bolt EV, it will be in exceptional comfort with all of these standard features. As soon as you sit in the driver’s seat, take command of emission-free driving with the push of a button to start your journey. When you exit, you never have to worry about locking your key fob in the car; if you leave your fob in the vehicle, the 2022 Bolt EV won’t lock the door until you retrieve it.
Available features such as heated front seats are an option for both 2022 Bolt EV trims and offer three settings for your comfort. Front seats can also be optioned with an eight-way powered driver’s seat with lumbar control. The available heated steering wheel can turn on the heat according to cabin temperature, or you can manually turn it on or off. Ambient lighting available for the 2LT trim creates atmosphere for the interior at night, and the interior style can be further elevated with leather seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel.
Remarkable Room
The legroom in both front and rear seats is large enough for adults to sit comfortably, and buyers of the 2LT trim gain the convenience of a folding rear armrest that adds two more cup holders for rear passengers. Cargo space in the front seat is remarkably sizeable, with pass-through storage beneath the center console and a covered bin beneath the center console armrest. In the rear cargo area, 16.6 cubic feet of space is available for stowing groceries and belongings when the load floor is in its lowest position. Folding the rear seats flat and raising the load floor creates an expanded 57 cubic feet for traveling with more cargo when you need it.
Infotainment and Safety
An Abundance of Technology
Owning an electric vehicle often means an abundance of technology is available for connectivity, entertainment, and safety features, and this is certainly true of the 2022 Bolt EV. A standard 10.2-inch touchscreen in the center stack provides a sharp, clear image for the rearview camera and for interacting with in-vehicle apps and systems. Chevy Infotainment 3 is the system utilized for operating the infotainment and includes standard cloud access for personalized usage of your vehicle systems, as well as the capability to activate WiFi or OnStar with a subscription. The audio system responds to voice commands with enhanced recognition of spoken commands, as well as for operating your paired phone hands-free.
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard with wireless connectivity, and wireless charging is available with the Infotainment Package that includes a Bose audio system and two additional charging ports for the rear seat. Amazon Alexa connectivity is built into the 2022 Bolt EV, so you can pair your Alexa account with your vehicle to take all your preferred content, navigation, schedule, and more wherever you go. Available in-vehicle apps like Spotify and the Weather Channel can allow for entertainment and information while you’re on the go and can be personalized for your preferred use.
Technology to Keep You Safe
Driver-assist safety features abound in the 2022 Bolt EV with the standard Chevy Safety Assist suite of technology that can prevent or reduce the severity of accidents. Active features like Front Pedestrian Braking or Forward Collision Alert with Automatic Emergency Braking can save lives through autonomous braking systems. Another active feature is Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, which can gently guide your Bolt EV to keep you safely in your lane if you accidentally drift. The Following Distance Indicator displays how close you are to another vehicle, while Intellibeam Automatic High Beams will dim in oncoming traffic, so you won’t have to remember. Additional safety features such as an HD Surround Vision camera for 360-degree views and Adaptive Cruise Control are available to make your Bolt EV even safer.
