Recognizing the benefits derived from their two-mode approach in their earlier hybrids, the engineering team also observed that they had a second motor-the generator motor-“ going along for the ride”, as Fletcher said during her presentation at the launch event in Detroit. Mechanical losses such as friction and windage dictate that the efficiency of an electric motor declines somewhat as motor speed increases. Pam Fletcher, Global Chief Engineer for Volt and Plug-In Hybrid Electric Powertrains That’s ultimately what the customer is looking for, is to maximize this notion of electric range, to maximize this notion of efficiency of the generator when we have to use it. How do we take all this battery energy.and very efficiently and effectively drive the wheels.

The story of the electric drive is really a story about efficiency. Put another way, the GM team wanted to extend the range of the vehicle as efficiently as possible, while maintaining quality driving dynamics and experience. Given that GM had committed to a combustion engine and a generator as a range extender for the battery, the engineering team set out to develop a drive system that could maximize the combined efficiency of all the components under the different driving modes (all battery electric, and extended range).

(The Volt could also be called a plug-in series hybrid, depending upon your taxonomic preference.) In fact, GM’s executive chief engineer of the Bolt and Bolt EUV Jesse Ortega said during a call, 'There are no plans to incorporate the Ultium system into the Bolt EV or Bolt EUV.The Volt is an electric-drive vehicle, powered by a 16 kWh Li-ion battery, incorporating an internal combustion engine and generator to serve as a range extender an electrical plug is intended to be the primary source of stored energy used to deliver motive power. The underlying tech beneath the vehicle remains the same because the Bolt is still based on the BEV2 electric-vehicle platform, not GM’s new Ultium platform. The 2022 Bolt EV is still powered by a single motor delivering 200 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels.

Chevy says that via DC fast charging, drivers would be able to add 100 miles of range in about 30 minutes. AC Level 2 charging has gotten a bit of a boost and supports up to 11 kW, but DC fast charging, which is now standard on all models, sits steady to support up to 55 kW, just like the previous generation. That's down 1.0 kWh from the 2021 numbers. The 2022 Bolt still has a targeted 259 miles of range from a 65.0-kWh capacity battery. While the interior and exterior look different, the vehicle specs themselves are nearly the same as the 2021 Bolt. The Bolt bests the Kona with the seats down by 11.2 cubic feet but loses to the Hyundai in trunk space by 2.6 cubic feet. With the 60/40 split seats down, that goes up to 57.0 cubic feet. Trunk space is 16.6 cubic feet, 0.3 cubic foot less than the 2021 model.

This makes the Bolt EV roughly the same size as the now more expensive 2021 Kona Electric. It’s the same 69.5-inch width, but a half-inch taller at 63.4 inches and about 0.8 inch shorter, lengthwise, at 163.2 inches. While the look got an upgrade, the size of the Bolt is nearly unchanged. With a little practice, EV drivers can drive around town using only the accelerator pedal. As the vehicle slows down, it recharges the battery. It's as if the person behind the wheel had placed their foot gently on the brake. When drivers lift their right foot off the accelerator, the EV begins to slow down, instead of coasting like a traditional gasoline vehicle.

The 2022 Bolt also now has a button on the center console that lets the driver enable one-pedal driving, which uses regenerative braking to bring the vehicle to a stop without using the brake pedal in certain driving situations. A wireless charger is optional, and the company has updated the shifter to a push-button system that sits in the center console.

A 10.2-inch display houses GM’s latest infotainment system and supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connections. And, in fact, rather than the 8.0-inch digital layout of the dash cluster that carries over from the current Bolt, the dash and interior look more like a regular Chevy and less like a futuristic electric car. The 2022 Bolt has been improved based on customer feedback, GM says, claiming the seats are more comfortable and the interior is more contemporary.
