The 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV is a breakthrough on many levels. It's the first mainstream and low-cost electric vehicle (EV) that can be driven nearly 250 miles on a single charge?twice the range of rivals. In addition, the small car is spacious inside, fun to drive, and has an intuitive...

With its Chevrolet Bolt EV, General Motors opted to go big on battery capacity but keep the car small and relatively affordable. And the strategy appears to be paying off in sales. GM said that it sold 12,249 Bolt EVs between December 2016-when the first deliveries were made in California-and...

While last year saw Tesla attract plenty of press and hoopla over their compact Model 3, it is still months away from hitting the streets. But, what has already been hitting the streets for months now, is the Chevrolet Bolt EV. It does just about everything the Model 3 promises, for a whole lot...
