Used 2020 Chevy Bolt EV Hatchback Trims Comparison
Trim level differences
There are only two trims available: the LT and the Premier. Both models are equipped with the same 66-kWh lithium-ion battery pack under the floor, sending power to a single electric motor (200 hp, 266 lb-ft) and a single-speed transmission. There is no difference in range either — 259 miles comes standard.
Which Bolt EV trim does Edmunds recommend?
Because the Bolt no longer qualifies for the full $7,500 federal tax credit for a new vehicle purchase, the higher-end Premier trim begins to look less enticing. The base LT has a more attractive starting price, and you can add the nearly the same optional safety and infotainment packages as the Premier if desired. Unless you need a luggage rack, surround camera and heated rear seats, enjoy the impressive range and acceleration of the Bolt LT and keep a few extra dollars in your pocket.
