Question:

Greetings, Ive been waiting for this setup for the Bolt EV Premier with roof rails to be available in the US for some time. I came across this page via google search and see that this is not yet listed under your section for the car even though I am able to put it in my cart. Im curious to know when it will be available and what crossbars it will work with - Aeroblade Edge 750x or 760x? Any information you have about this setup and availability would be greatly appreciated. Having bought the Premier trim of the car way back in January, in part for the roof rails, this has been a long and frustrating wait! Thanks

I spoke with my contact at Thule and was able to confirm that the Thule Roof Rack Fit Kit # TH45KE referenced in your question is confirmed to fit your 2017 Chevrolet Bolt EV as long as it has the flush mounted rails.

To complete the roof rack system, you will just add the Thule Feet # TH710601 and the two 47 inch WingBar Load Bars # TH711220. This will give you an extremely quiet roof rack with a weight capacity of 165 pounds.
