General Motors has announced that it will roll out Bluetooth hands free technology across a number of its vehicles, beginning in the 2009 model year. Currently, only one GM vehicle — the Cadillac STS — offers Bluetooth, leaving a glaring hole in the General’s option list.
In the Q&A section of the GM FYI Blog, Phil Colley of GM Performance Parts said that GM will soon launch the “broadest rollout of Bluetooth in the industry,” involving 30 vehicles by the 2009 model year.
While the Cadillac CTS and Chevrolet Malibu have been heavily praised by the media, one complaint that has always seemed to surface is their lack of an available Bluetooth system. The addition of the technology should sway some buyers and ultimately increase interest and sales of GM vehicles.
