Does a Chevy Volt have a navigation system?

Chevrolet Volt Navigation System
The Chevrolet Volt does not come standard with a built-in navigation system. However, it is possible to add a navigation GPS system to the vehicle as an add-on for model years 2016-2018. Additionally, the vehicle’s infotainment system supports navigation features such as route customization, traffic monitoring, and turn-by-turn voice directions, provided an eligible service plan is in place.
Some users have reported issues with the navigation system in their Chevrolet Volt, such as the system getting stuck in “Navigation initializing” or requiring a reset. Others have expressed interest in adding navigation to their vehicles after purchase, either through aftermarket options or by inquiring about the possibility of updating the system at a dealership.
It’s worth noting that Chevrolet has recognized the trend towards smartphone integration and offers CarPlay/Android Auto for better integration and safer use of mobile phones in the vehicle. This suggests that the company is prioritizing smartphone-based navigation solutions over native GPS navigation.
In summary, while the Chevrolet Volt does not come standard with a built-in navigation system, there are options available to add navigation features to the vehicle, and the infotainment system supports customization and navigation features with an eligible service plan.
