How to Charge the 2027 Chevy Bolt

Home, Public and Fast Charging

The 2027 Chevy Bolt brings improved charging capability to Chevrolet’s compact electric vehicle lineup, giving drivers more flexibility at home and on the road. For Chattanooga-area shoppers considering an EV, understanding how to charge the 2027 Chevy Bolt can help make everyday ownership easier. At Mtn. View Chevy, we’re a local resource for drivers exploring the Bolt and its electric capabilities. Here’s a look at the three main charging options and what to expect from each.

Charging the Bolt at Home

Home charging is a convenient way to keep your 2027 Bolt ready for daily driving. The vehicle includes a Dual Level Charge Cord that supports both standard household outlets and compatible 240V outlets.

Key home-charging details include:

• Level 1: Connect the charge cord to a standard 120V household outlet. Chevrolet estimates approximately 4 miles of range per hour of charging, making this a practical option for drivers with shorter daily commutes.
• Level 2: Use a compatible 240V outlet with the included Dual Level Charge Cord for approximately 27 miles of range per hour. For faster home charging, the Bolt supports up to 11.5 kW with a compatible, professionally installed charging station, delivering approximately 40 miles of range per hour.

The Bolt features a standard NACS charge port. Home charging costs depend on your electricity rate, charging equipment, and driving habits.

Charging the Bolt in Public

Public Level 2 charging stations offer another way to recharge while shopping, working, or spending time around Chattanooga. These stations can be useful when you need additional range away from home.

Because the Bolt uses a NACS charge port, some public Level 2 stations with J1772 connectors may require a compatible adapter. Charging networks also have different payment and access requirements, so check station details before arriving. The MyChevrolet app can help you locate compatible charging options and plan stops.

DC Fast Charging the Bolt

DC fast charging is especially useful for longer trips or when you need to add range in less time. The 2027 Bolt supports public DC fast charging at rates of up to 150 kW and can charge from 10% to 80% in a GM-estimated 25 minutes under appropriate conditions.

Its native NACS port also provides access to select Tesla Supercharger locations without a charging adapter. Check the MyChevrolet app for compatible stations before planning your route. Actual charging times vary based on battery temperature, starting charge level, and charger output.
