The Chevy Bolt EUV is an all-electric crossover utility vehicle (CUV) produced by General Motors.

  • The Bolt EUV is designed as a battery-electric vehicle (BEV), meaning it runs solely on electric power and does not have a gas tank or gas-powered engine.

  • BEVs like the Bolt EUV use an electric motor and battery pack to provide propulsion, eliminating the need for traditional gasoline or diesel fuel.

  • Charging the Bolt EUV's battery from an electrical outlet is the only way to "refuel" the vehicle, as it does not have any means to burn gasoline.


The Chevy Bolt EUV is part of the growing trend towards all-electric vehicles that do not require any gasoline or other fossil fuels to operate. As automakers continue to invest in electric vehicle technology, more and more models will be designed as pure battery-electric cars without any gas-powered components.
