The 2027 Chevrolet Bolt returns better than ever. Chevy took a short break to reimagine this popular EV, and now it's back with faster charging, a redesigned interior, and the same practical hatchback shape that made it a hit. You get 210 horsepower from the front electric motor, a 0-60 time of 6.8 seconds, and up to 262 miles of range on a full charge. Fort Washington Chevrolet has the new Bolt on our lot near Indian Head Hwy, ready for your test drive through Marlow Heights or Alexandria.

Whether you commute to Waldorf or just need a nimble city car, the Bolt fits your life. The compact footprint makes parking effortless, but the clever cabin still seats five adults with ease. With the new NACS charging port, you'll spend less time plugged in and more time driving.

How far can the 2027 Bolt go on a charge?

The Bolt delivers an EPA-estimated 262 miles of range from its improved battery pack. That's enough for a full week of commuting from Fort Washington to Alexandria without plugging in. The front-mounted motor produces 210 horsepower, making highway merging feel confident and responsive. You'll reach 60 mph in just 6.8 seconds, which is genuinely quick for an entry-level EV.

Fast charging is where the 2027 Bolt really shines. With the new NACS port and DC fast charging, you can go from 10% to 80% in about 25 minutes. That means a coffee stop on I-95 adds over 200 miles of range.

What technology does the 2027 Chevrolet Bolt include?

The cabin feels modern and uncluttered. An 11-inch digital driver display pairs with an 11.3-inch infotainment touchscreen. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard, and you get two wireless phone charging pads under the climate controls. Google built-in provides natural voice commands for navigation and media.

Available Super Cruise hands-free driving works on mapped highways, including stretches near the Beltway. Standard Chevy Safety Assist includes automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, lane keep assist, and IntelliBeam headlights. The optional adaptive cruise control reduces fatigue in stop-and-go traffic.

Fresh design for Fort Washington streets

The 2027 Bolt gets sharper front fascias, slim LED lighting, and available 17-inch wheels. The RS trim adds a sportier front grille, black accents, and unique badging. Inside, you'll find upgraded soft-touch materials, clean horizontal lines, and better ergonomics. The rear seats fold flat to open up 56 cubic feet of cargo space, enough for a weekend's worth of gear or a trip to the local farmers market.

Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are available, making cold Maryland mornings more bearable. The panoramic sunroof brings light into the cabin without sacrificing headroom. Every detail feels purposeful, not overstyled.

Frequently asked questions about the 2027 Bolt

What is the real-world range of the 2027 Chevy Bolt?
EPA estimates 262 miles on a full charge. Actual range varies with temperature, driving style, and terrain. In Maryland winters you might see slightly less, but the Bolt's thermal management helps preserve range better than many older EVs.
How fast does the Bolt charge on a DC fast charger?
GM estimates a 10% to 80% charge in about 25 minutes using a DC public fast charger. That adds roughly 210 miles of range during a short break. The new NACS port also works seamlessly with Tesla Superchargers (adapter required for older stations).
Does the 2027 Bolt have Super Cruise?
Yes. Super Cruise hands-free driving is available as an option on higher trims. It works on over 750,000 miles of mapped highways, including major routes around Fort Washington, Alexandria, and Waldorf.
What's the difference between LT and RS?
LT is the well-equipped base trim with 17-inch wheels and a full tech suite. RS adds a sportier front fascia, black accents, unique 17-inch wheels, and a slightly upgraded interior with contrasting stitching. Both share the same battery and motor.
How much cargo space does the Bolt offer?
With the rear seats up, you get 16.6 cubic feet. Fold the rear seats flat, and that expands to 56 cubic feet. That's enough for a bicycle with the front wheel removed or a full load of groceries for a large family.
