Chevrolet pays for home charging outlet

Chevrolet is making EV ownership easier for Canadians by covering the cost of the standard installation of a Level 2 (240-volt) charging home outlet for eligible customers who purchase or lease a new 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EUV or Bolt EV.

Charged By Chevrolet, when you select the home installation option, provides eligible customers access to faster charging right where they want it – at home - when paired with the new available Dual Level Charge Cord, standard on 2022 Bolt EUV and soon to be available for purchase on 2022 Bolt EV. Owners can plug a compatible charging cord directly into the 240-volt home outlet negating the need for a standalone charging station.

Since most EV owners can satisfy their daily needs by plugging in at home, it is essential to make at-home charging easier for current and interested customers. Most plug-in electric vehicle drivers do more than 80% of their charging at home.

When using the Dual Level Charge Cord (240-volt 32 amp charging cord), the 2022 Bolt EV achieves approximately up to 41 km per hour of charge.

For eligible customers who already have Level 2 charging capability, or don’t require it, Chevrolet is offering a $750 FLO public charging credit so eligible customers can charge on the go.  FLO provides access to the largest number of public charging stations in Canada, thanks to its own FLO network and convenient roaming agreements.

The Bolt EV has led the charge in putting more drivers in electric vehicles. Since its market introduction in 2017, global sales have topped 100,000, with over 13,000 Bolt EV sales in Canada.
