Bolt Reborn: Chevy’s 2027 EV brings faster charging and an LFP battery

Chevrolet resurrects the Bolt as the 2027 model, swapping in a 65 kWh lithium-iron-phosphate pack for about 262 miles of range, 210 hp front‑drive, and 0–60 mph in 6.8 seconds. It supports up to 150 kW DC fast charging via a Tesla-style NACS socket, runs Android Automotive OS, and offers RS and LT trims priced around $32,995 and $28,995 respectively. Production at Fairfax, Kansas is planned to last only about 18 months before GM retools the plant for gasoline models, making this a short-lived revival.

"Head-to-Head: Cadillac Lyriq vs. Model Y - Charging Speed and Popularity Compared"

A test of the Cadillac Lyriq's DC fast charging capabilities revealed that the vehicle was able to charge at a maximum rate of 188 kW, close to its stated maximum of 190 kW. However, the charging rate gradually reduced after reaching a peak, resulting in a slow charging speed. In a 40-minute session, the Lyriq was only able to add back 60% of its battery, translating to 187 EPA-rated miles added. Further testing is needed to fully assess the vehicle's charging capabilities.
