Chevrolet has unveiled its latest compact five-door all-electric
hatchback 2017 Bolt EV at the on-going 2016 Consumer Electronics Show in Las
Vegas. With a whooping driving range of 200+ miles, the new Bolt is also packed
with unique styling and advanced connectivity technologies.
The Bolt EV was first presented at the 2015 North American
International Auto Show as a concept, and GM has now pushed for the production
version in less than a year. The all-electric car will go into production by
the end of this year in North America. The model shares lithium-ion battery
technology with the 2016 Chevy Volt plug-in-hybrid.
On the design and styling front, the Bolt EV boasts
attractive LED-infused headlights and taillamps and an aerodynamic dual-element
grille, along with gloss black accents, a distinctive greenhouse, a
tailgate-mounted spoiler. Inside the cabin, GM designers have crafted a unique,
driver-centric dashboard that holds digital instrument cluster and a 10.2-inch
MyLink infotainment system that has a "customizable, widget-based
'flip-board style' operation."

weather and his driving habits. In addition, a gaming mode in also on the
anvil, which will allow drivers to contest against each other to see who is
driving the most efficiently.
Other connected technologies in the Bolt EV includes a
comprehensive wireless smartphone charging dock, and a Surround Vision system
for improved safety during low-speed driving and parking.
