For those paying close attention, during the brief video introduction of the 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV we posted yesterday, you would have caught an MSRP hidden away in the video itself.
After taking a second look, and heading over to the 2017 Bolt EV promotion site, it seems the dollar figure for the plug-in will be $37,500 before any tax credits or rebates. Chevrolet is banking heavily on the $7,500 tax credits from the U.S. government to help make the Bolt EV a true, mass-market vehicle.
Other than the federal rebates, the 2017 Bolt EV may also be eligible for individual state incentives, too. States such as California may become an excellent place to pick up a Bolt EV, knowing the price could dip well below $30,000 after federal and state incentives.
Chevrolet has stated it plans to have the Bolt EV available by the end of 2016. Whether that is a nationwide launch or selective markets get first dibs remains to be seen.

It seems a bit steep to me, but I really don’t see the appeal of this vehicle. It looks like an econobox, and the Volt is a much more practical real world car -cheaper (and better looking) too. Actually, for the same $30k it will cost after tax credits, I’d personally rather have a V6 Impala …but I’m not really worried about my “carbon footprint” or the price of gas.
AND YOU ARE A BULLSHIT!
You should be worried about “carbon footprint” if not for yourself then any children!!!!!!
Well, it’s not like I’m burning tires in my backyard or anything, it’s just not something that I actively put any thought into.
With all the pollution spewing factories in China, and the constant parade of cargo ships coming from there, or the gas leak in California that’s putting off more pollution than all of the cars in LA county combined, there are clearly bigger battles to be waged.
