Tired of spending your hard-earned money and precious time fueling up your car in Raleigh? Making the switch from gas to electric power may just be the perfect solution!

Depending on the electric car charger you plug into, you can charge the Bolt in as little as 30 minutes to an hour. Explore Bolt EV electric car charger options and charge times with Hendrick Chevrolet Buick GMC Southpoint to learn more.
With the Bolt EV’s battery charged to 100%, you can travel for 259 miles in and around Cary! How long it takes to charge the Chevy Bolt depends on the type of electric car charger you’re using. There are three levels, outlined below.
Every new Bolt EV comes equipped with a 120-volt portable charger cord, otherwise known as Level 1 Basic charging. This is the slowest option, providing 4 miles of range per hour of charging. The 120-volt portable charger can be plugged into any three-prong 120-volt outlet, making it a decent option for home charging.
If you stick with this electric car charger for home charging, you’ll probably want to plug your Bolt in every night. 12 hours of Level 1 charging would give approximately 48 miles of range, which is just about enough for the average commute.
Upgrading to Level 2 Fast charging is significantly faster and is accessible at public stations or at home. With this electric car charger, you can earn about 25 miles of range per hour of charging.
The 240-volt charging unit can be installed in your driveway or garage by a certified electrician. If your daily commute takes about 40 – 50 miles round trip, you could replenish that range in just two hours with Level 2 Fast charging. With a depleted battery, this electric car charger can get it back to 100% in approximately 9.5 hours.
Level 3 Super Fast is available only at public electric car charger stations. This is a great option when you’re planning a longer trip in your Bolt EV, as it provides 100 miles of range in 30 minutes of charging or up to 160 miles in about an hour.
The Bolt EV must be fitted with a special charging port to plug into DC Fast Chargers around Chapel Hill. You can contact our team to learn more about the cost of equipping your Bolt EV for Level 3 compatibility.
Bolt EV owners can download the myChevrolet Mobile App to access the Energy Assist feature, which makes EV ownership simpler by pointing out electric car charger options in your area. You can view current wait times at any electric car charger, as well as plan the most efficient route to get there.
