Which Chevrolet EVs are the most affordable?

In times of high gas prices and increasing concern for the environment, many people are switching to electric vehicles. There are also new studies showing that hybrids and electric vehicles are helping their owners save money over time as well as protecting our environment.

However, many drivers might hesitate to buy an electric car in the first place because they believe the upfront cost will usually be higher than a gas-only vehicle. This isn’t necessarily the case with Chevrolet’s new line of electric vehicles. In this article, we will go over the various electronic vehicle (EV) models offered by Chevrolet, compare and contrast their advantages and disadvantages, and help you decide which model suits your needs while still staying well within your budget.

What if we told you that the brand-new Chevrolet Bolt is actually one of the most affordable electric vehicles you can buy today? Starting at an MSRP of $26,595, the Chevy Bolt’s new list price has lowered by $5,900 compared to the 2022 model, a good sign for the trajectory of electric car prices going forward.

There’s more good news. There’s no reason to sacrifice power for an eco-friendly car. The Chevy Bolt comes with a 200-hp electric motor. Each charge will also take you further than before since the average Bolt has an impressive range of 259 miles. Now, if you want to upgrade to the Bolt EUV, that range will dip to a still respectable 247 miles per charge, but it is a significantly larger car.

In addition to the Bolt’s powerful performance and enticing range, this new model offers several options for drivers looking for a comfortable and luxurious ride. The Bolt comes with leather-appointed power seats and a built-in Apple CarPlay and Android Auto system to keep you entertained on the road. Drivers will love the car’s modern safety features, such as the lane departure warning and the lane-keep assist, designed to help you correct course if your attention ever strays from the road.

It was recently reported that the new Chevy Bolt is now considered the most affordable electric car in the US car market.

Some drivers want the comfort and space of an SUV along with an electric car’s efficiency and environmentally friendly attributes. For these consumers in the Columbia area, we offer the Chevy Equinox EV, starting at an MSRP of $30,000.

Families especially love the Equinox, which comfortably fits five people in ultra-comfortable and luxurious seating. The new model will include multiple USB ports and will likely have a Wi-Fi hotspot and the standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integrations. This way, the whole family can stay connected and entertained on long road trips around Tennessee or shorter ones such as daily commutes to and from work and school.

If you fold the rear seats down, the upcoming 2024 Chevy Equinox can provide around 57 cubic feet of storage space, an essential feature for a family car. In terms of performance, the vehicle’s estimated range per charge varies from about 250 to 300 miles, depending on the kind of car purchased. The 1LT trim tends to have a range on the lower end of the spectrum, while the 2LT, 3LT, 2RS, and 3RS trims provide between 280 and 300 miles per charge.

Drivers who want to go the extra mile to make driving their electric vehicle even more relaxing should look into add-on features offered with the Equinox, like adaptive cruise control and dual-zone climate control, so the passengers’ preferences in the front don’t have to affect those in the back.

The 2024 Chevy Equinox EV will be the best way to go when looking for an affordable electric vehicle. It’s especially suited to families and those who often carry a lot of cargo or go on outdoor adventures or for folks who like and prefer SUVs in general. However, while you wait for the model’s release, you can check out some of our available gas-only Chevy Equinox vehicles online.

Chevy Bolt EUV

We briefly mentioned the EUV in our section on the Chevy Bolt EV. Many people think the EUV is roughly the same car as the EV. While they share many similarities, the Chevy Bolt EUV differs in its important features and offerings while maintaining the sleek design, efficiency, and, most importantly, affordability of the Chevy Bolt EV.

First off, the EUV looks noticeably different than the EV. This vehicle is a taller, wider, and slightly longer car whose body looks even more powerful than the classic EV. This is the main reason the EUV is better classified as a compact SUV in terms of the space it offers drivers and passengers. Tall drivers will surely appreciate this perk.

People who spend a significant amount of time in their car will also appreciate the extra cargo space in the rear of the car. Moreover, drivers can access much more space by lifting the wide and tall back liftgate.

For this reason, the Chevy Bolt EUV is a great electric vehicle for families, commuters, and outdoor adventurers. It retains the touch-screen infotainment display, set up to keep the kids (and adults, why not?) entertained while on long commutes or road trips.

Here at Stan McNabb Chevrolet of Columbia, we offer the Chevy Bolt EUV starting at an MSRP of $41,195, with some discounts available. Remember that for an SUV-sized electric car, this is one of the best prices you’re going to get in the U.S. at large.
