JAKARTA - General Motors (GM) ensures that next-generation Chevrolet Bolt is only available for larger EUV (Electric Utility Vehicle) versions, and will launch in 2025.

Quoted from the InsideEVs page, Monday, December 11, many of the Bolt EUV will be updated, including more advanced hardware. Meanwhile, the selection to present an EUV version of GM's word is partly due to its extraordinary popularity compared to the Bolt EV.

Although the exact sales figures are not disclosed, it is widely believed that Bolt EUV sales exceed the Bolt EV by a significant margin, which is one in two.

Reflecting on the sales of the first nine months of this year, Chevrolet sold a total of 49,494 Bolt units, an increase of 125 percent compared to the same period in 2022.

This is due to competitive prices, which are further reduced by electricity tax credit from the Inflation Reduction Act.

We are pleased to see the enthusiasm around Chevrolet Bolt coming. We will share the details as the launch date approaches," said one of the GM's spokesmen.

As is known despite its successful sales, the Bolt EV has reached a fairly old age where it debuted for the first time in 2016, followed by the Bolt EUV in 2022.

With considerable popularity GM plans to bring in next-generation Bolts with several upgrades, such as cheaper LFP battery usage, faster charging, advanced safety features, and other significant improvements.

"We are very excited, as the new Bolt will develop a formula that has made it as successful as it is today," added a GM spokesperson.
