Oshawa, Ontario (Tuesday, September 20, 2016) – The Chevrolet Bolt EV set the range benchmark for an affordable EV capable of going the distance by delivering an U.S. EPA-rated 383 kilometres (238 miles) on a full charge. Now, Chevrolet is keeping its promise to offer the Bolt EV at an affordable price by confirming a base Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price of $42,795 plus a $1,600 destination freight charge. Pricing can be as low as $31,434 (plus the freight charge), after the eligible Ontario provincial incentive applicable to the base model of the Chevrolet Bolt EV of $11,361*.  For more information about the Provincial Electric Vehicle Incentive programs available in Canada please see the links below.

“Value is a hallmark for Chevrolet and the pricing of the Bolt EV proves we’re serious about delivering the first affordable EV with plenty of range for our customers,” said Alan Batey, president of GM North America and leader of Global Chevrolet. “We have kept on our promise yet again, first on range and now on price.”

Bolt EV buyers will find range, cargo space, technology and safety features standard in a great vehicle with crossover proportions. In Canada, the DC fast charging provision and the tire inflator kit are provided as part of the standard equipment. The thrill of driving an EV, reduced costs of ownership, along with the support of a nationwide network of Bolt EV certified Chevrolet dealers make the Bolt EV a smart buy for any customer.

The base LT trim starts at an MSRP of $42,795 and comes with standard features that include, among others, Regen on Demand™ steering wheel paddle, rear vision camera, 10.2” diagonal colour touch-screen and MICHELIN™ Self-sealing tires. The top trim Premier includes all LT equipment plus additional standard features such as leather-appointed seats, front and rear heated seats, surround camera and rear camera mirror. The Bolt EV will be arriving at Canadian dealerships in early 2017.

*This is a pre-tax equivalent of the expected Ontario Provincial EV Incentive of $12,839 on the base model of the Bolt EV.

Canadian provinces of British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec offer incentive programs that provide rebates for customers purchasing an electric vehicle. For more details on the available provincial incentive programs please see the appropriate link below:
