The 2013 Chevrolet Volt made its debut last year, so there are few changes for 2012. Turn-by-turn directions through OnStar are now standard on all Volts equipped with navigation.

Drive modes—Normal, Sport, and Mountain—can now be manually selected to help drivers get the most out of their battery charge. Lane-departure warning and forward-collision alert have been added to the options list, and GPS-enabled navigation using Chevy MyLink is now available.
