That's not a great comparison since I'd categorize the Bolt as being fairly inefficient. It has poor aerodynamics (wrong shape and no flsf bottom) which results in a larger range loss when range matters most at interstate speeds.

The Bolt is efficient in city driving, but not otherwise. I'd say a better comparison would be between the Mach e and model Y where you do see a meaningful difference in efficiency.
