General Motors Co.’s 2020 Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle will have a driving range of 259 miles, 8% more than the outgoing model (pictured), according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s fuel economy website.
Chevy hasn’t released specifications for the 2020 model, which is due this autumn. But media reports speculate that the additional range will be due to a more powerful battery than the current 60-kWh unit.
