General Motors has announced that it will be offering its Reconfigurable Performance Display on a select few 2009 models. The dealer-installed option will list for $295 and will be available on Cobalt and HHR SS models, although the option will likely also extend to Pontiac Solstice GXP and Saturn Sky Redline buyers, too.
As the name implies, the Reconfigurable Performance Display consists of a small LCD display that can display a number of different performance data sets, and is also highly customizable. The device is capable of displaying battery voltage, boost pressure, instant horsepower and torque readouts, cam phase angle and even has a built in g-meter, thermometer and barometer.
The Reconfigurable Performance Display also controls the car’s traction control and features a few other trick options, such as a programmable shift light.
No word on when the Reconfigurable Performance Display will be available on other GM vehicles, but we’re sure it’s coming. Until then, it seems like the perfect way to make a baby Nissan GT-R out of your 2009 Cobalt SS.
