CNET have published a review of the Chevrolet Volt electric car. 'Settling behind the wheel of the Volt, we depressed the brake pedal and touched the glowing blue Start button partway down the glossy white center stack. The Volt's LCD displays sprung to life and we got our first look at the interface. At the top of the center stack is a color touch panel that gives you control over the infotainment systems and climate controls, and it displays detailed information about the Volt's electric power train, charge state, and historical fuel economy. Below the touch screen is a bank of capacitive touch sensors that bring up functions such as hard-drive media storage, XM Satellite Radio, or navigation. In the center of this bank is a pair of knobs for tuning and volume, and the Volt's CD slot.'
