General Motors continues to be a leader in automotive technology with it’s most recent new and improved features that will become available in several Chevrolet models starting later this year. Both the 2012 Chevrolet Equinox and 2012 Chevrolet Volt will be equipped with Chevrolet’s MyLink, an integrated system which connects your Andriod or Blackberry smartphone to a console-mounted touchscreen.

MyLink will allow you to access your smartphone apps through easy to maneuver steering wheel controls or through the consoles touchscreen. This will be made possible because your phone will be connected by the vehicles Bluetooth system which allows you to wirelessly access your apps. Mylink will also be Apple friendly, giving Apple users the same functionability, the only difference being connection via USB .

Both the Chevy Equinox and Chevy Volt will also be the first Chevrolet models that will become available with the options of voice control functionality courtesy of Nuance, in addition with PowerMat’s cordless cell phone charging system.
