2017 Chevrolet Bolt Design Features near Bothell

The 2017 Chevrolet Bolt near Bothell calls attention from the start. It’s well-sculpted, with a strong stance that gives it a confident look. Little engineering design elements such as a flat underbody allows for better aerodynamics. The Bolt is classified as a compact crossover—and it certainly has the utility and accommodating ride height of a car in that class.


The Bolt comfortably seats five people, and that aforementioned flat floor allows for more spaciousness and an easier way to enter and exit. Since engine noise is not an issue in electric vehicles, the cabin is pleasantly tranquil. The Bolt boasts a maximum of 56.6 cubic feet of space when its 60/40 split-folding seats are folded down. A false cargo floor is available, and can keep additional cargo organized.

Driving and Handling of the 2017 Chevrolet Bolt

The 2017 Chevrolet Bolt near Bothell accelerates from 0 to 60 in less than 6.5 seconds, showing that an electric vehicle is just as comfortable on the highway as any other gas-powered car. The electric motor and battery combo puts out 200-horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque, and can be charged in as little as 9.3 hours with the available 240-volt charge equipment. Since the round trip of the average commuter is only 30 or 40 miles per day, the battery will last quite a while between charges.
