As the warmer months of Spring loom pleasantly around the corner for all of us here at O'Rielly Chevy of Tuscon, we are all closely watching how different automakers worldwide are pledging in their own ways to give aid to the state of the global environment. During the annual CERAWeek energy conference in Houston, GM Ceo Mary Barry made the announcement that due to the increase in global demand, Chevy Bolt EV production is slated to be drastically ramped up. The job will take place at the Orion Assembly plant north of Detroit, and the ultimate goal is to build around 30,000 units annually.
One issue that has been prominently in the spotlight as of late has been the grave importance regarding the need to remove barriers that exist in consumers accepting the presence of electronic vehicles on the road. The service and sales staff right here at O'Rielly Chevy believes that the energy industry, as well as various other stakeholders, should partner with auto manufacturers to develop a healthy infrastructure for charging, that will drive consumer confidence to be able to use their EV's in all types of locations. During the last fiscal year, Chevy proudly announced a detailed expansion of electric car plans, and slated among them are 2 new electric vehicles based on the EV bolt platform within the next year and a half. There will also be 18 more within the next 5 years, a period of unprecedented growth!
The base LT trim for the Bolt offers you 17-inch alloy wheels, HID headlights, a rearview camera, single-zone automatic climate control, keyless start/entry, an 8.0-inch re-configurable display, and Chevy's MyLink infotainment system, accompanied by a 10.2-inch touchscreen. We can show you all of the details of the Premiere Trim level here at O'Rielly as well: this is where you snag leather upholstery, a 360-degree view camera system, heated steering wheel, ambient lighting, heated front and rear seats, blind spot warning, rear parking sensors, and rear-cross traffic alert.
During the very crucial IIHS testing, last year's Bolt EV received the score of “good” on every single crash text, except for the headlight category, as well as the “Superior” rating on the front crash prevention test. Successfully avoiding a 12 as well as 25 – MPH collision, this also lead to the Bolt then being honored with the Top Safety Pick rating from the IIHS for the entire year. Behind the 60/40 split-folding rear seats, you'll find 16.9 cubic feet of cargo space, and when folded all of the ways down, offer up to 56.6 cubic feet. U.S. News claimed in its car blog this month that the 2018 Bolt has “zippy performance and a spacious interior”, and praised it for long range, quick charging time, and high power ratings.
When you come check this and all the other great vehicles at O'Rielly Chevy out, we can show you how it's a front-running and cutting-edge model, that boasts the claim to one of the longest ranges available for electric cars on the market today. At 238 total miles, it's easy to rejuvenate the battery power overnight, by using the available 240-volt charger. You'll have the potential to save hundreds of dollars on expensive fuel, and we are all excited about the rising level of production for the nation's most sophisticated and reliable option for an all-purpose electric car!
