Chevy Bolt Charge Time by Level

The Chevy Bolt achieves an impressive EPA-estimated 259 miles of range on a single full charge, but how long does it take to charge a Chevy Bolt? Find out how your electric car charger of choice influences your charge time:

• Level 1 Basic: Using a standard 120-volt portable charger cord and three-prong outlet, you can charge at home to gain 4 miles of charge per hour. In 12 hours, you’ll get around 48 miles of range.
• Level 2 Fast: Found at home or public charging stations, the 240-volt electric car charger will deliver around 25 miles per hour of charge. This type of electric car charger must be professionally installed, but it is much faster than the Level 1 option.

• Level 3 Super Fast: Only found in public stations, the DC Fast Charging station truly lives up to its name by delivering up to 100 miles of range in only 30 minutes of charge. If you’re out and about in Long Island City while low on battery, a Level 3 charger can help you in a hurry.
