The Chevrolet Bolt electric sedan will late this year with a government-estimated range of 238 miles per charge, according to General Motors Co.

The Environmental Protection Agency rating compares with 210 miles for the base Tesla Model S electric, which costs $28,500 more than the expected $37,500 price tag for a base Bolt. Tesla makes cars with significantly greater range, but they cost as much as $134,500.

Tesla Motors Inc. hopes to launch a more competitive model, the $35,000 Model 3 electric sedan, at the end of next year. The Model 3 is expected to have a range of 215 miles per charge.
