Chevrolet Bolt EV
Chevrolet’s fully electric hatchback is largely redesigned and improved for 2022. And much cheaper, too, since the base price has dropped by $6,800 from the 2021 model. EV rebates apply, representing total savings of up to $13,000, which makes the Bolt EV even more attractive and competitive. Thanks to a 65-kWh lithium-ion battery, drivers can expect to travel up to 417 kilometres with a full charge. Output is rated at 200 horsepower.
