Get out of Dodge … or an electric Chevy (4)

I believe the answer is:

bolt

(Other definitions for bolt that I've seen before include "From the blue, it's a great surprise" , "Crossbow missile" , "wolf" , "A . . . . from the blue is a complete surprise" , "writer" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
