I'd like to talk to the guys who designed them. It is an amazing car, but there are a couple of annoying - even dangerous - things about it.
They put the power button right below the mode button and twice I've turned the dammed thing off while trying to change modes. Seems like every Volt owner does this sooner or later. Strangely, (and fortunately) while the motive power dies, the power steering and power brakes still work. They should put the power button in some remote place, since you only use it twice per drive.
The whole dashboard follows the recent trend of making it necessary to take your eyes off the road to change anything, which i don't like. It's not as bad as BMW's iDrive, but it's never the less dangerous and annoying. It's hard to find a car without it anymore. Someday someone is going to design a safety "drive by feel" dashboard that lets you control basic functions by the feel of the control and lets you keep your eyes on the road.
I also wish they would have an automatically closing charge door. I forget and leave mine open most of the time. Have to stop the car and get out and close it.
