Chevrolet Canada began deliveries of the first Bolt EVs to Canadian customers, fulfilling the brand’s promise to offer a long-range affordable electric vehicle.
Bolt EVs are currently in transit to Bolt EV-certified dealerships in British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec, with a planned national rollout anticipated later in 2017.
The 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV starts at a manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $42,795 (plus $1,600 freight charge and $100 air conditioning tax), but excludes tax, title, license and dealer fees. In Ontario, pricing can be as low as $30,406 after the eligible Ontario provincial incentive of $12,389.
“I chose the Bolt EV because I was impressed by the technology and innovation built into the car,” said Samantha Mesrobian, new Bolt EV owner. “It is the perfect car based on my current driving habits, and has a long range battery. There is no impact to my lifestyle other than reducing my carbon footprint. And that’s what my goal was.”
Named the 2017 North American Car of the Year, 2017 Green Car of the Year and 2017 Motor Trend Bar of the Year, the Bolt EV offers an U.S. EPA-estimated 383 kilometres of range on a full charge, enabling owners to go beyond average daily driving needs with range to spare.
