Chevy is really hyped about the upcoming Bolt EUV. Teasers for the upcoming electric crossover come left and right ahead of its debut next month. This recent teaser allows us to take a closer look at the rear of the crossover as we’ve already seen a headlight, side profile and part of the interior. Roadshow reports that Chevy will partner with Disneyworld for the unveiling of the crossover and is expected to attract the attention of family-oriented buyers – just the kind of buyer Chevy hopes to convert to electric vehicles.
In the teaser video we get a clear view of the rear of the crossover and clearly show off the Bolt-inspired design.
According to previous Roadshow reportswe can expect the Bolt EUV to have a lot in common with the Buick Velite 7.
Here’s how the Bolt and the Buick Velite 7 stack up, from Roadshow:
When asked about the Velite 7’s relationship with the Chevy Bolt EUV, a Chevy spokesperson confirmed with Roadshow that the two models will share the same platform, but made no further comment.
As for the Velite 7 itself, Buick said it will run 310 miles based on the New European Driving Cycle, but expect a range of less than 300 miles, realistically. The NEDC is not only an outdated cycle, but also very liberal in its estimates. Slightly bigger than the current Bolt EV 259 mile range seems more realistic. Buick even mentioned a “new modular high-performance lithium-ion battery” for the Velite 7 with a higher energy density, so it will likely go a little further than a Bolt EV.

The Velite is currently only available in the Chinese market. We’ll know more when the new Bolt EUV makes its debut on February 14th in the most magical place on earth.
