These are the most affordable ways to go electric.
After a series of teasers, the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt just made its official debut alongside the new Bolt EUV variant that s meant to look more like an SUV. Both models carry over the existing Bolt EV drivetrain, which features a 65-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery mated to a permanent magnetic drive electric motor. Total output is 200 horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque, all going to the front wheels only.
This may not be enough power to frighten Tesla, but Chevy has managed to decrease the Bolt s price by more than $5,000. With a starting price of $31,995, the 2022 Bolt is one of the least-expensive new electric vehicles on the market, second only to the 2021 Mini Cooper SE. But what if someone wants an even cheaper EV experience? Since this technology advances so quicker, used EVs tend to be hilariously cheap. We ve found six used EVs (and one gasoline range extender) that are far cheaper than a new Bolt.
