I ordered my Bolt EUV on 26 Sept 2022. I found out how to check the order status on the chevy site. Its been a month and the conciege still says the order is not officially accepted. What?!
Does anyone know about this? I think i know more about this and ev's than my salesman.
I'm worried that the packages i ordered are difficult for chevy to build. I ordered the sunroof with the blue metallic and gray seats. I skipped the supercruise.
I have visions of the paint chief putting me in a short line for blue metallic, waiting for more orders. Or waiting for parts for a sunroof.

Mine took 113 days after production. SC & sunroof. Blue metallic.

How long after placing the order was it to reach production?

Ours was apx 4 months from placing the order to production. This was starting in April 2022, so production was still halted for a little while after and may have extended the wait for building.

Have you read about GM’s allocation system on the forum? It’s possible your dealer doesn’t have any or has very little allocation of Bolts. It’s also possible there are multiple orders ahead of you. Here’s a video describing it. Larger volume dealers will have more consistent allocation than the one in the video.

At this point, you’re close enough to the end of the year that you might as well hope to take delivery in January and get the tax credit.

About 45 days.

I took delivery of my ’23 exactly 10 weeks from the day I placed my order (Premier, Blue Metalic, no additional options). I also live in the midwest about 6 hours from the plant, so that helps. It did take about a month for my order to be officially accepted by GM. That said, one major factor that plays into how long it takes for an order to get accepted is the amount of allocation your dealership… which has a bit to do with the volume of units they move, etc.

We ordered ours August 2022 and we are still waiting....order hasn't even been 'received' by Chevy.

I'm still waiting too. The chevy site says something like not officialy accepted. My salesman called and told me i would get some action in February or March. Nothing yet.
