The New Chevy Bolt Charges Quicker Than GM’s Pricier EVs. It’s More Proof That Voltage Matters

There’s a clever choice at the heart of every “Ultium”-powered General Motors EV. Whether it’s a big honkin’ GMC Hummer EV or an affordable, base-model Chevy Equinox EV, all of the General’s electric products rely on the same foundational pillar: The same basic cells, arranged into 24-cell modules. All of them, that is, except the new Bolt. And it’s also the one with the best 10-80% charge time.
