About This 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV Premier Hatchback

This 2017 Bolt EV Premier (Stock #153020, VIN: 1G1FX6S08H4153020) shows 128,079 miles on the odometer — and for an electric vehicle, that context matters. Unlike gasoline engines, the Bolt EV's electric motor has no oil changes, no timing belts, and far fewer moving parts to wear out. Many Bolt EV owners report batteries and drivetrains that remain functional and dependable well past 100,000 miles. At under $9,000, this is a rare opportunity to own a fully electric Premier-trim Bolt in the Inland Empire at a price that's hard to beat.

The silver exterior presents a clean, modern look that holds up well on the road, and the Premier trim means you're not getting a stripped-down base model — you're getting Chevrolet's top-tier Bolt EV configuration.

2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV Performance and Electric Motor

The 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV is powered by a capable electric motor driving the front wheels through a single-speed fixed-gear transmission — meaning there's no clutch, no gear shifts, and no hesitation. Power delivery is immediate and smooth, which makes merging onto the 215 or navigating surface streets feel effortless.

When new, the Bolt EV produced approximately 200 horsepower and 266 lb-ft of torque, numbers that gave it legitimately quick acceleration by any standard. The single-speed drivetrain means the car simply goes — no drama, no delay. For Bloomington and Inland Empire commuters dealing with stop-and-go traffic, the regenerative braking system also helps recapture energy on deceleration, improving real-world efficiency on every drive.

Chevrolet Bolt EV Premier Features and Interior

The Premier trim is the highest trim level in the 2017 Bolt EV lineup, and it comes loaded with features that still impress today. Expect a 10.2-inch diagonal infotainment touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, heated front and rear seats, a heated steering wheel, leather-appointed seating, a Bose premium audio system, and a surround-view camera system.

The interior is surprisingly roomy for a hatchback, with a flat floor thanks to the underfloor battery pack. Rear passengers get solid legroom, and the hatch cargo area is practical for everyday errands, grocery runs, or weekend trips around San Bernardino County.

Chevrolet Bolt EV Reliability and Ownership

The Bolt EV has earned a strong reputation in the EV community for its reliability and low ownership costs. With no engine oil, no transmission fluid, no spark plugs, and minimal brake wear thanks to regenerative braking, the ongoing maintenance costs are dramatically lower than comparable gasoline vehicles.

One important note for buyers: Chevrolet issued a software update for Bolt EV batteries related to a recall in the 2020–2021 timeframe. It's worth verifying the recall history on this specific VIN through NHTSA's database or asking Unique Auto Center directly — many Bolts have already had recall work completed. Outside of that, the Bolt EV's track record for dependability is genuinely strong, and it remains one of the most practical and affordable used EVs available today.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV Premier a good buy?

Yes — especially at this price point. The Bolt EV Premier was the top trim of one of the first long-range, affordable EVs ever made. It offers a well-equipped interior, strong performance, and dramatically lower ownership costs than gas-powered alternatives. At $8,995, it represents exceptional value for a daily commuter in the Inland Empire.

How many miles is too many for a used Chevrolet Bolt EV?

For an EV like the Bolt, mileage means something different than it does for a gasoline car. With far fewer mechanical components to wear out, many Bolt EVs continue performing reliably well beyond 100,000 miles. Battery health is the most important factor to evaluate — asking for a battery health report or having the vehicle inspected by a qualified EV technician is a smart step.

What does the Bolt EV Premier trim include?

The Premier trim adds a 10.2-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, heated front and rear seats, heated steering wheel, leather-appointed upholstery, Bose premium audio, and a surround-view camera system — all standard over the base LT trim.

How far can a 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV go on a full charge?

When new, the 2017 Bolt EV was EPA-rated for approximately 238 miles of range on a full charge — a class-leading figure at the time. With age and use, real-world range on this vehicle will vary depending on battery health, but many owners report retaining solid range even at higher mileages.

Does this Bolt EV qualify for any tax credits or incentives?

Used EVs may qualify for a federal used clean vehicle tax credit of up to $4,000, depending on your income and tax situation under current IRS guidelines. Ask your tax advisor or consult IRS Form 8936 for eligibility details. California also offers additional EV incentives through programs like Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP) — worth exploring before you buy.
