Its low price will put it below the Chevrolet BOLT EV and will make it more attractive for other markets that should look at it from afar. There will be four variants in all, ranging from $ 23,000 to 26,000, after the subsidies provided by the Government.

Chevrolet claims that the Menlo EV would have a range of more than 400 kilometres in a single charge.Its electric motor generates 150 hp and 258 lb-ft, supplied by a 52.5 kWh lithium-ion battery pack.
