Nov 24, 2016 · Here is the underhood fluid fill points for the 2017 Bolt. Three separately managed thermal loops, for the cabin heater, lithium-ion battery, and power electronics team (on-board charger, power inverter module, and auxiliary 14V power module) As with the Volt these heating/cooling systems...

Oct 12, 2018 · Volt is more upscale, but Bolt can be forgiven because its whole focus is max battery life to allow for max range. If the Bolt did not look like the gross child between a station wagon and a minivan, I would have done it. But instead it looks like it got the bad end of the ugly stick 5 times over. And what was GM thinking with that shock color?

Jul 10, 2017 · The Chevrolet Bolt is a recent arrival on the electric car market, and it wouldn’t be unusual for a service tech at a Chevy dealer to have not yet seen one (doesn’t necessarily mean the tech hasn’t worked on Volts, just that the tech hadn’t yet seen an all-electric Chevy model).

Sep 17, 2017 · The Chevy Bolt comes with 17" x 6.5J offset 44, cast aluminum wheels with Michelin all-season Energy Saver A/S 215/50R17. The tires are ~25-7/16" diameter. These are self-sealing tires, except for punctures on the outer edges of the tread or in the sidewall. So, you may need a spare, whether to...

The HV battery on the Bolt EV has an external 2.5 kW heater, external coolant chiller (a mini-evaporator connected to the A/C system) and internal cooling manifolds, cooling plates and coolant hoses. 2. HV Reserve Energy Storage System (RESS) battery cooling/ heating loop Bolt EV high-voltage cabin heating — The Bolt EV uses a

Nov 24, 2020 · The Bolt EUV is slated for Summer 2021, so say 7 months minimum before you could drive one away. I suspect Chevy will have identified the Bolt EV battery issue before then and will have either issued a hardware-based or software-based (both?) recall.

Feb 3, 2017 · When your bolt says 100% on the dash (or onstar app, etc), check what the SOC-R value says. That is the upper buffer limit. Record the car/onstar % and side by side the SOC-R% and we can extrapolate the true upper and lower limits.

Oct 16, 2019 · Unfortunately you need to buy a Tesla-to-J1772 adapter to use it with the Bolt and that makes it expensive - but with that combination you can plug into virtually any AC outlet or into any Tesla Level 2 ("Destination") charger. That gives you an enormous amount of flexibility if you ever need to make an unplanned charging stop.

May 15, 2018 · Also, once you release the tensioning bolt that holds modules together you run the risk that the used rubber gaskets that seal the cooling system will not seal perfectly the second time. If there is a leak, even a small one, you will have to take the pack back out and figure out how to seal it back up.

May 8, 2016 · But the aluminum may be easier to repair than composite and if the Bolt is used as an urban taxi or Lyft type vehicle playing urban bumper cars, composites might not be the best material. Or maybe the Corvette body is a retail low-volume "experiment" and GM is still evaluating the composite materials game.
