Here at Starling Chevrolet, we are committed to helping you get the most out of your money. When you’re looking to shift from a gasoline-powered car to something fully electric, you want to make sure you’re making the smartest choice.
Here’s an overview of the 2022 Chevy Bolt EV’s overall efficiency.
Compare to the Competition
First, we should ask: “Is the 2022 Chevy Bolt EV the most fuel-efficient non-luxury EV available?”
Well, no. In tests, the 2022 Chevy Bolt beat the range estimated for a single charge by the EPA by seven percent, achieving 278 miles (at a rating of 259 miles). This trails the only competing model, the Volkswagen ID.4 Pro, by just one mile.
While the 2022 Chevy Bolt EV may not be the most fuel-efficient car on the market, it certainly sits at the top of the market for EV cars.
What’s Your Cost “At the Pump?”
Determining the cost of driving EVs is quite different than analyzing how far you can go on a gallon of gas. The kilowatt-hour (kWh) is an EV unit of measurement roughly equivalent to a gallon of gasoline.
On a fully charged battery, the 2022 Chevy Bolt EV has an estimated consumption rate of 28 kWh per every 100 miles. While the cost of charging an EV will depend on where you live, the cost of the electric “fuel” that runs the Chevy Bolt EV comes in far below what you would pay to fill up a gas tank.
Powerful Savings
This makes the 2022 Chevy Bolt EV an extraordinarily fuel-efficient vehicle, with the potential to save you a lot of money year over year when compared to operating a gas-powered vehicle.
