General Motors will increase production of the Chevrolet Bolt EV electric car by 20 percent in response to higher-than-expected demand from customers. Buoyed by healthy sales in the US, Canada and South Korea, GM said that global Bolt EV sales in the first half of 2018 are up 40 percent year-over-year.
Chevrolet builds the Bolt EV at its Lake Orion plant in Michigan, but says that sales have "outstripped production." GM CEO Mary Barra hinted at the potential production ramp-up in a speech in March, when she told attendees at a conference in Houston that, "Because of increasing global demand for the Chevrolet Bolt EV, we are announcing today that we will increase Bolt EV production later this year."
