Charging is no big deal
And as easy as plugging in your cell phone.

Bolt EV gives you
the power of choice.


Basic (Level 1)
Home About 4 miles per hour of charge*
Charge Every Day

  • Standard 120-Volt Portable Charger
  • Charge on a daily basis
  • Comes standard with Bolt EV
  • Charge anywhere there’s a 120-volt, 3-prong outlet
  • Perks
  • Comes standard with Bolt EV
  • Gives owners the opportunity to top off their charge while Bolt EV is sitting for extended periods
  • Things to consider
  • Most U.S. homes are equipped with 120-volt, 3-prong wall outlets
  • With a 120-volt outlet, you should be able to replenish the battery, based on an average commute, with an overnight charge. A 12-hour charge will give you about 48 miles of range
  • The key is to plug in every day after work so you never empty your battery. That way, you’re just topping off what you used earlier that day
  • 240-volt home charging unit is recommended and is the fastest way to charge at home
  • You may want to delay charging until utility rates are at their lowest off-peak prices, which is usually at night while you sleep

Fast (Level 2)
Home + Public Stations About 25 miles per hour of charge*
Charge Every Few Days
  • Available 240-Volt/32-Amp Charging Unit
  • Charge whenever you want or go days without plugging in
  • It’s like having your own personal gas station (without the fuel, of course)
  • Recommended charging unit for home use
  • Requires professional home installation
  • Perks
  • The fastest, most convenient way to charge at home
  • Easily top off your charge at any time
  • If you drive an average commute of 40–50 miles, you could fully replenish the battery in about 2 hours
  • Even if you drive 100 miles (use half of the battery life) you could fully replenish the battery in about 4.5 hours
  • Things to consider
  • Battery will replenish from empty to full in 9.5 hours
  • Since the 240-volt charging unit requires professional installation, talk to a certified electrician about installation costs and incentives in your area
  • If you live in a multi-dwelling property, contact your management company about providing this service to tenants
  • You may want to delay charging until utility rates are at their lowest off-peak prices, which is usually at night while you sleep

Super Fast (Available DC Fast Charging)
Public Stations Only
Up to 90 miles of range in about 30 minutes of charge*
Charge on the Go

  • Available DC Fast Charging
  • Charge while away from home, whether you’re grabbing lunch or running errands
  • Requires available DC Fast Charge port
  • Available at participating locations
  • Perks
  • Accelerated charging times
  • DC Fast Charge capability is available to Bolt EV owners for an additional cost
  • Convenient for those who are out and about and need to top off their charge while parked
