That is good to know. I stopped at a couple local dealers and looked at them. I know there are more interior options for the Volt, but it appears that all of the local available G-2 cars are rubber stamped jet black interior in the local cars.
That said, this interior combination is just plain sexy, at least it is to us.
We like contrast in our vehicles.
I did notice that the instrument panel of the new Gen-2’s looks very similar to the CADILLAC ELR layout that ended production in 2016.Essentially the same car but with a different body and twice the price when new. The ELR must be significantly heavier since the over all mpg is substantially less that the Volt.
