How Much Time to Charge Chevy Bolt: Three Charging Levels

Wondering how long to charge a Chevy Bolt before taking it out on the town? The length of time you should charge the Chevy Bolt depends on how much driving range you want to achieve for the trip ahead. Find out how long it takes to charge the Bolt using a Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 electric car charger:

Level 1 Basic: 120-Volt Portable Charger Cord

This is the slowest type of electric car charger. It uses your basic household 120V three-prong outlet and provides about 4 miles of range per hour of charging. That means it will take quite some time to reach the full 259-mile range; this type of charging is best used overnight when you want to replenish the electric range you used during the day prior. If you charge the Bolt EV for 12 hours on Level 1, you will gain approximately 48 miles of range.

Level 2 Fast: 240-Volt Charging Unit

The next type of electric car charger is the Level 2 240V unit, which is available at public charging stations around Kernersville but can also be professionally installed at home for fast overnight charging! Plugged into a Level 2 electric car charger, you can gain about 25 miles of range per hour of charging.

Level 3 Super Fast: DC Fast Charging

The fastest type of electric car charger is the Level 3 DC fast charging unit, which is currently only available at properly equipped public charging stations. It’s great for on the go, as you can gain up to 100 miles of range in just 30 minutes of charging. Keep in mind that you will need to have a special charging port installed in your Bolt EV at an additional cost in order to plug into this type of charging unit. 

How to Locate an Electric Car Charger On the Go

Chevy Bolt EV owners will want to get the myChevrolet Mobile App, which has a convenient Energy Assist feature that makes it easier than ever to drive electric in Greensboro! You can use Energy Assist to locate public charging stations near you, view their current wait times, and even select the most efficient route to navigate to them.
