2027 Chevrolet Bolt: Range, Trims, Features, and What's New
The 2027 Chevrolet Bolt delivers 262 miles of EPA-estimated range from a 65 kWh battery and 210 hp motor. That range figure and native NACS fast charging mark the biggest practical upgrades over earlier Bolt generations. Below you will find every trim, spec, and tech feature, plus current inventory at ASA Auto Plaza.
What's New for 2027
The headline upgrade on the 2027 Bolt is a native NACS charge port, giving drivers plug-and-play access to the largest public fast-charging network in North America without an adapter. DC fast charging at up to 150 kW brings the battery from 10% to 80% in roughly 25 to 26 minutes, a meaningful improvement for anyone doing longer drives through southern Minnesota or across the region.
The 210 hp permanent-magnet electric motor is new for this generation, up from the 200 hp unit in the previous Bolt EV. Combined with a 65 kWh battery, the result is 262 miles of estimated range. Vehicle-to-home (V2H) capability is also now standard, letting the Bolt serve as a backup power source when connected to a compatible home setup.
Google Built-In is now fully integrated rather than mirrored, meaning Google Maps, Google Assistant, and the Google Play app store all run natively on the 11.3-inch touchscreen. Gemini AI joins as an available in-vehicle assistant. Blind Zone Steering Assist and Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking are both standard across every trim.
Trim Lineup
The 2027 Bolt is offered in two trims: LT and RS. Both are front-wheel drive with identical powertrains and the same 262-mile range.
LT
LT is the entry trim and comes with the 11.3-inch Google Built-In touchscreen, 11-inch digital driver information center, standard Adaptive Cruise Control, Keyless Open and Start, automatic climate control, Remote Start, 5G connectivity, a 6-way manual driver seat, standard safety suite, 17-inch silver painted aluminum wheels, and cloth seat trim. Available upgrades include 17-inch machined-face aluminum wheels, a dual panel sunroof package, heated seats and steering wheel, ventilated front seats, HD Surround Vision, Super Cruise, wireless phone charging, and the exclusive Relic Green Metallic exterior color.
RS
RS steps up with sportier standard content: 17-inch gloss black aluminum wheels, a gloss black grille, Evotex seat trim with red stitching, multi-color ambient interior lighting, heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, an 8-way power driver seat, rear center armrest, inside rearview auto-dimming mirror, a wrapped steering wheel, and gloss black roof rails. Atomic Yellow is an RS-exclusive exterior color. Super Cruise and HD Surround Vision remain available on the RS as well.

Performance & Powertrain
The 2027 Bolt uses a single GM X76 permanent-magnet electric motor producing 210 hp and 169 lb-ft of torque, driving the front wheels through a direct single-speed drive unit. There is no transmission to shift and no engine to start.
The 65 kWh battery supports three charging scenarios. At home on a standard Level 2 setup, the onboard 11.5 kW charger accepts up to 11.5 kW, and a Dual Level Charge Cord is standard on both trims.
At a DC fast charger using the native NACS port, the Bolt accepts up to 150 kW, recovering roughly 54 percentage points of charge in about 25 to 26 minutes.
EPA efficiency ratings land at 134 MPGe city, 106 MPGe highway, and 120 MPGe combined. One-Pedal Driving mode is standard and allows most drivers to manage speed and stops using only the accelerator pedal, extending range and reducing brake wear.

Interior, Comfort & Cargo
The 2027 Bolt seats five with generous front-row dimensions: 40 inches of head room, 44.27 inches of leg room, and 54.60 inches of shoulder room. Rear passengers get 37.80 inches of head room and 39.10 inches of leg room, competitive for the compact segment.
Cargo space behind the second row measures 16.2 cubic feet. Fold the 60/40 split rear seat and total cargo volume reaches 56.3 cubic feet, making the Bolt genuinely useful for hauling gear on weekend trips around Austin and beyond.
Both trims include automatic climate control, front and rear carpeted floor mats, a rear window defogger, and heated power-adjustable outside mirrors. The RS adds the Comfort Package as standard content, which includes the heated steering wheel and heated front seats. An available panoramic dual-panel power sunroof opens up the cabin considerably on both trims.
Multi-color ambient interior lighting is available on the LT and standard on the RS. USB-C ports are present in both front and rear rows on every build.
Technology & Infotainment
The center of the dashboard is anchored by an 11.3-inch touchscreen running Google Built-In natively. Google Maps handles navigation with real-time traffic, Google Assistant responds to voice commands, and the Google Play app store gives access to compatible apps. Gemini AI is available as a more conversational in-vehicle assistant.
Directly in front of the driver, an 11-inch user-configurable digital driver information center displays range, energy use, navigation prompts, and driver assistance status. The system runs on 5G connectivity and includes Wi-Fi hotspot capability standard.
When parked or charging, in-vehicle entertainment apps including HBO Max, Tubi, Prime Video, and YouTube are accessible through the infotainment screen. That feature is particularly practical at a DC fast charger, since a full 10%-to-80% session takes about 25 to 26 minutes.
Available Super Cruise adds hands-free highway driving assistance on compatible roads, a feature that can make longer interstate drives in Minnesota noticeably less fatiguing. HD Surround Vision (available on both trims) adds a bird's-eye camera view for parking. An available digital rearview mirror replaces the standard reflective mirror with a wide-angle rear camera feed.
Wireless phone charging is available on both trims. SiriusXM with 360L is standard, and an HD Rear Vision Camera is standard on every build.
Safety & Driver Assistance
Every 2027 Bolt ships with a full standard safety suite.
- Forward Collision Warning with pedestrian and bicyclist detection
- Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking
- Blind Zone Steering Assist
- Front and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert with Emergency Braking
- Intersection Automatic Emergency Braking

Available upgrades include Traffic Sign Recognition, Driver Attention Assist, Rear Pedestrian Alert, HD Surround Vision, Front and Rear Park Assist, and a Rear Camera Mirror. Super Cruise, Chevrolet's hands-free highway driving assistance system, is available on both trims through the Super Cruise Package.
The battery and electric motor components are backed by an 8-year/100,000-mile warranty. Roadside assistance (including towing) is covered for 8 years or 100,000 miles as well.
Who It's For and How It Compares to Prior Years
The 2027 Bolt is the right choice for drivers who want an affordable, no-compromise electric vehicle with real-world range. The 262-mile figure is enough to handle daily driving in the Austin area and regional trips without charging anxiety. The native NACS port eliminates the adapter step that earlier Bolt owners needed for Tesla Supercharger access.
Compared to the previous generation, the 2027 model brings more horsepower (210 vs. 200), native NACS, Google Built-In natively integrated (not mirrored), standard Blind Zone Steering Assist on every trim, and vehicle-to-home capability. Drivers who already own a Bolt EV or EUV from 2023 or earlier will notice those upgrades immediately.
For buyers in Austin, MN who are weighing the switch to electric, the Bolt's combination of a sub-$30,000 LT entry point and an 8-year battery warranty removes the two most common objections to EV ownership: upfront cost and long-term battery risk.
