The 2017 Bolt EV weighs in at a little under $43,000 in Canada.

Boasting a range of 383 km on a full charge, the 2017 Bolt EV will be available in Canada, in early 2017, starting at $42,795 plus a $1,600 destination freight charge. GM says pricing can much lower after any eligible provincial incentives are applied.

“Value is a hallmark for Chevrolet and the pricing of the Bolt EV proves we’re serious about delivering the first affordable EV with plenty of range for our customers,” said Alan Batey, president of GM North America and leader of Global Chevrolet. “We have kept on our promise yet again, first on range and now on price.”

The base LT trim comes with standard features that include Regen on Demand steering wheel paddle, rear vision camera, 10.2-inch diagonal colour touch-screen and self-sealing tires.

The top trim (Premier) includes all LT equipment plus additional standard features such as leather-appointed seats, front and rear heated seats, surround camera and rear camera mirror.
