The Chevy Volt electric car is now available for purchase. GM will release the Volt in seven regions including California, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Washington, D.C., Michigan, and Texas. The base model will include a number of high-tech features, such as Bluetooth connectivity, a navigation screen, and five years of GM’s OnStar service. There will also be four options, such as a rear camera, a more expensive paint package, and different wheels. The Chevy Volt is expected to be delivered to your doorstep later this year if you are one of the 10,000 people who placed an order for it already. [CNet]
