What Owners are Saying About the 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV

"Amazing Value, Extremely Practical and Very Fun"

"I had previously driven a Tesla and know many people with performance Tesla cars and wasn’t sure how I’d like the Bolt’s acceleration and infotainment, but boy did it beat my expectations. I loved it the moment I got in. The dashboard is nice looking, the leather seats are all heated and rather comfortable. Amazing automatic headlights make night driving seem like day time compared to some older vehicles I’ve driven. Getting around town is insanely efficient. I can charge up in my garage overnight and have enough charge to go pretty much anywhere I need to without charging again. The price was much less than a Tesla, which though it doesn’t have the Supercharging network and lacks some of the speed and infotainment, it is a much better value. I would only upgrade to a Tesla for the self driving software. So far, very impressed with the Bolt. It’s an incredible car and very cost effective. The lack of engine noise and quick acceleration take a little getting used to, but once you’re adjusted it feels and sounds amazing. I love the little hum of the electric motor and the one pedal driving (let go of the accelerator and the motor uses regenerative breaking to slow the car to a stop all while recharging the car). The car looks small on the outside, but has an incredible amount of interior space for both cargo and passengers. If this car is Chevy’s first attempt at electric cars, then the future of the auto industry is going to be amazing. Can’t wait to see what they come out with next!"

"Best car I've ever had (all things considered)"

"This is my second Bolt. Had a 2017, this one is better. The seats are better, there seems to be more room in the interior and the Premier model is loaded with tech and safety add ons. My 2017 was not as well equipt but I still loved it. It's not a Porsche, BMW or muscle car but it can sure move if you want it to. Reliable. Never, in 36000 miles did I have to bring the 2017 for service. Say bye-bye to gas stations and high insurance premiums. Cheaper than a Model 3 and certainly cheaper than a Model S. The Bolt has more of everything compared to the other EVs. Ok, so I can't drive more than 125 miles on a single charge. So what. Most of my traveling is less than 100 miles total. Lots of cargo space. A dream to park. I guess you can say I like the car. Ya think?"

"The Bolt works just fine for what I use it for."

"Would not ever use or recommend this dealer to any one friend or foe. I have already changed my preferred dealer to a different dealer a little farther away then selling dealer."

2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV Depreciation

Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.
