Exterior and interior

Exterior of the second generation is more modern and muscular: a closed-off «grille», slim LED headlights, an aggressive front bumper, and crisp body lines create a dynamic look. The car looks compact yet confident, with good aerodynamics.

Interior Bolt EV has been noticeably improved: soft-touch materials, comfortable front seats, an intuitive layout, a large central display, and a digital «instrument panel». The cabin is spacious for its class — a flat floor, tall roofline, and plenty of rear-seat room.
