2023 Chevrolet Bolt EUV Gains Redline Edition, Hopes To Put Recall In The Rearview Mirror

The Chevrolet Bolt EUV was introduced last year, but it suffered a disastrous launch that was marred by a massive battery recall and a temporary halt to production.

The problems have now been worked out and Chevrolet is trying to get things back on track with the 2023 Bolt EUV. While the model appears to largely carryover, buyers will find a new Redline sport appearance package that embraces a dark aesthetic.

The Redline Edition is available in three colors – including Summit White, Mosaic Black Metallic and Silver Flare Metallic – and each features a handful of special touches including 17-inch gloss black wheels with contrasting red accents. They’re joined by red decals on the mirror caps as well as black and red “Bolt EUV” badging on the rear hatch.

Interior changes are relatively modest, but Chevrolet noted a “Jet black leather interior with red accent stitching is available on both LT and Premier trims.”

Chevrolet didn’t say much else about the 2023 Bolt EUV, but we shouldn’t expect major changes. As a result, the model likely has a 65 kWh battery pack that powers a front-mounted electric motor developing 200 hp (150 kW / 203 PS) and 266 lb-ft (360 Nm) of torque. This should enable the crossover to accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in 7.0 seconds and travel 247 miles (398 km) between charges.

While the bowtie brand is going to have to work hard to rebuild consumer confidence, the Bolt EUV features a spacious interior with an 8-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10.2-inch infotainment system. The model is also notable for offering Super Cruise, which allows for hands-free driving on more than 200,000 miles (321,869 km) of compatible roads in the United States and Canada.
