Sell a Chevrolet Bolt EV or Bolt EUV in any condition

Bolts are tough little cars, but a front-end hit, a battery fault or a long stretch parked can still end one early. We buy Bolt EVs and EUVs crashed, dead or just unwanted.

The battery recall matters when you sell

In 2021 GM recalled every 2017 to 2022 Bolt EV and the 2022 Bolt EUV over a battery fire risk. Many cars got new battery modules or a complete new pack, which came with its own warranty. Others got software that limited charging while they waited.

A Bolt with the replacement battery is worth noticeably more. If you're not sure whether yours had the work done, check your service records or ask any Chevrolet dealer to look up the VIN. Tell us what you find when you call.

Bolt problems we see most

  • Front-end damage. The Bolt's nose is short, so even a moderate hit reaches the radiator, AC condenser and headlights.
  • Battery and charging faults, including cars still waiting on recall work or limited by recall software.
  • Dead 12-volt batteries that leave the car looking completely dead.
  • Charge port and onboard charger failures.

How we load a Bolt

To roll onto a flatbed, a Bolt needs to be in Neutral, and that needs 12-volt power. If the 12-volt battery is flat, our driver wakes it with a jump pack. If it won't wake, the car goes on with wheel skates and a winch. Either way it rides the whole trip with its wheels off the road.

For crash damage beyond the front end, see selling a damaged EV. For a Bolt that drives but has a failing pack, battery trouble lays out the options.

Questions about selling a Bolt

Do you buy Bolts that never had the recall work done?

Yes. Tell us so we price it right. A car still waiting on recall work is worth less than one with a new battery, but it still has value.

Is a Bolt EUV any different to sell?

Not really. The EUV is a little bigger and newer, which can help the price. Everything else works the same.

Can you pick up a Bolt from a Chevrolet dealer?

Yes. Tell us which dealer and who to talk to, and settle any repair or storage bills with them before we arrive.

Want it gone this week?

Call with the year, model and what happened. We'll ask a few questions about the battery and where it's parked, then give you a number.
