Despite their best efforts, General Motors has not been able to keep the production kick-off date under wraps very well for the electric Chevrolet Bolt.
In fact, we learned one year ago that this October would mark the start of production for the 200-plus mile Bolt. October was confirmed again just a few months ago.
We’re now able to reconfirm this timeframe via Automotive News:
“Bolt EV: GM is scheduled to begin production of the 200-plus-mile EV in October. The initial annual production target is around 25,000 cars, which could include vehicles slated for export to China.”
At least we know that the Bolt is still on track and that our assumption from a few months back is still accurate, despite General Motors immediately removing the Bolt’s October start of production listing from the 2017 Fleet Guide (see image) upon discovering that the media got a hold of the document.
I couldn't post the GM assembly plants on the Chevrolet Bolt EV forum. Follow the link:
