Chevrolet Bolt

Opel has confirmed the next-generation Corsa will be offered with an all-electric powertrain. In a statement released to European press, the company confirmed a pure-electric hatch will follow the regular Corsa, expected to launch in 2019. All versions will be built in Zaragoza, Spain – the first PSA Group facility to produce a pure-electric Opel or Vauxhall model.

GM employees in San Francisco have begun testing a fleet of self-driving taxis on public roads. In an interview with TechCrunch, Kyle Vogt, founder and CEO of GM's Cruise automated driving division, revealed the company has begun beta trials of its new Cruise Anywhere service.

General Motors is planning to deploy a fleet of autonomous Chevrolet Bolt EVs with its ride-sharing partner Lyft next year, according to a new report.

The Chevrolet Bolt electric hatchback may be rechristened before it hits the production line late next year. At last week's Chicago auto show, Alan Batey, GM's vice president in charge of North America, admitted to the Detroit Free Press that "some people" think the Bolt's name is confusing due to its similarity to the Volt.

The just-revealed Chevrolet Bolt EV concept may be officially spun as a collaboration between the US, Korea and Australia, but an original concept for a small electric vehicle was completed by the South Korean studio yet never saw the light of day, while the Aussies were called in and their version was taken to the motorshow floor.
