Chevrolet Now Makes Electric Cars — Check Out the Lineup

Posted on Updated on

As the world makes the shift to electric cars, trucks and SUVs, many are left wondering if their favorite brand will follow suit. If you’re a Chevrolet fan, chances are you already know about the incredible lineup of electric vehicles available. However, if you aren’t a Chevrolet enthusiast and are looking to make the switch to an electric car, you might not know about the wonderful lineup of EVs available from Chevrolet. 

That’s why we have put together this quick blog to give you a preview of the amazing lineup of electric cars that Chevrolet is rolling out. If you’re looking for a fun, reliable and affordable electric car, there is no better brand to consider than Chevrolet. Getting a great deal on one of Chevrolet’s new electric cars is pretty simple — all you have to do is visit Waldorf Chevrolet today!

Bolt EV

The first of Chevrolet’s latest electric car offerings, the Bolt EV is an all-electric car with incredible tech and an EPA-estimated range of 259 miles. With a 0-60 time of just 6.5 seconds, the Bolt EV is the perfect combination of technology, value and performance.

It is offered in two unique trim levels, seven eye-catching colors and comes with seating for up to five passengers. On the exterior of the Bolt EV you will find a modern look with sleek body lines and a futuristic grille. When you take a look at the interior you will find a power 8-way Driver’s seat, a sport-inspired steering wheel, and a variety of smart storage options. 

Concerned about safety? The Chevrolet Bolt EV gives you peace of mind as it comes standard with Chevy Safety Assist — a suite of advanced safety features designed to keep you and your family safe. If that isn’t enough safety, you can also opt for HD Surround Vision and Adaptive Cruise Control.

When it comes to charging the Bolt EV, you will be able to do so in the comfort of your own home as Chevrolet offers installation of a Level 2 charger at no cost to new owners. However, we don’t anticipate you’ll be spending much time plugged in or at a public charging station as the Bolt EV offers a whopping 259-mile range on a single charge.

Bolt EUV

The first of its kind, the Bolt EUV is Chevrolet’s answer to an electric car that can fit a family. It is a spacious, five-passenger “EUV” — an electrified version of the SUV body style we all know and love. With seating for five and 39-inches of rear-seat legroom, the Bolt EUV has plenty of room for your family and all of their gear. 

Just as the Bolt EV does, the Bolt EUV will feature One Pedal Driving, Sport Mode and standard Chevy Safety Assist. Along with these standard features, you can also choose from a variety of tech upgrades including hands-free driving and all-new Super Cruise™ technology. Interior upgrades will include available leather-appointed seats, heated & ventilated seats as well as an 8-way power driver’s seat. 

There will be two trim levels of the Bolt EUV available, and if you’re willing to wait, a special Redline Edition is coming in early 2023. Opting for the Redline Edition will get you a jet-black interior with red accenting and stitching, 17-inch gloss Black painted aluminum wheels with red accents and an eye-catching black and red Bolt EUV badge. 

When you buy a Bolt EUV, Chevrolet will cover the cost* of the installation of a Level 2 charger in your home. If you don’t have the ability to have a charger installed in your home — don’t stress — with an estimated range of 247 miles and dual-level charging you won’t ever find yourself without a charge.

Electric Vehicles are More Practical Than You Think. Here’s Why

Posted on Updated on

As fuel prices soar and climate change becomes a larger public concern, the need for electric vehicles becomes clearer and clearer. Despite the growing need for electric vehicles, there is no shortage of negative rumors surrounding the vehicles. You’ll hear about “range anxiety” or how rare materials are used to build batteries for EVs. The thing is, you could say many of the same things about gas-powered vehicles — without all the benefits of an EV. 

Whether you’re considering an electric vehicle or flat out refuse to adapt, this blog will show you just how practical electric vehicles are. By the time you finish this blog, you’ll be convinced that electric vehicles are the future of automobiles — and that future is now. Once you’re done reading, make sure to pay a visit to Waldorf Chevrolet located in Waldorf to test drive an electric vehicle today. 

They Require Less Maintenance

One of the biggest reasons electric vehicles are more practical than internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles is that they require less maintenance. With a gas-powered vehicle, you have to perform routine maintenance, such as oil changes and tune-ups — all of which are costly. Unlike gas-powered cars, electric vehicles require little to no routine maintenance and will only see a mechanic when it needs major repairs or servicing. 

While electric vehicles will still need new tires, brakes and wiper blades throughout the year, you will still be performing less routine maintenance on them compared to a gas-powered vehicle. This means you’ll be able to save tons of money on oil changes, tune-ups, fluid changes and other routine maintenance that is associated with a gas-powered vehicle. With the money you save on both fuel and maintenance costs, owning an electric vehicle practically pays for itself!

Save on Fuel Costs

An obvious benefit to electric cars is the amount of money you will save by not purchasing fuel. If you own a fully-electric vehicle you won’t be hitting the local gas station to fuel up once a week. Instead, you’ll be able to “fuel” up at home as you can have a level 2 or 3 charger installed inside of your garage with relative ease. This means not only will you save money on fuel, but you’ll also save yourself some time as you won’t have to travel to the gas station.

Now, if you live in an apartment complex, charging your EV might be a bit more complicated if your complex doesn’t have on-site charging stations. In this case, you’ll have to figure out where the nearest charging station is and spend a bit of time charging up there. While the time spent charging may be a drawback, if you can combine it with other activities it is quite practical. 

Whether you have the ability to charge at home will decide just how practical owning an EV is for you. However, as time goes on and EVs grow in popularity, more public charging options will become available and make owning an EV more practical than ever before. Even if you don’t have the ability to charge an EV at home, the amount of money you’ll save on fuel and maintenance is enough reason to make the switch. 

Self-Driving Mode

A feature straight out of a sci-fi movie, self-driving technology is yet another reason owning an electric vehicle is more practical than you may think. We all know that driving is dangerous and combining human error with it only heightens the amount of risk — yet we all get behind the wheel each morning without a second thought. 

With self-driving electric vehicles, that inherent risk of human error is eliminated, making the roads a safer place for everyone. Self-driving car technology allows you to commute completely hands-free as artificial intelligence makes driving decisions for you. You will have to remain alert at all times while using the self-driving mode just in case you need to take control of the vehicle at any time.

Not only do self-driving cars keep people and the roads safer, but they also make your daily commute easier than ever before.
