Using Kinect for Xbox 360, consumers will be able to test drive a Chevrolet Volt using 'Kinect Joy Ride,' the first controller-free racing game developed by Microsoft Game Studios. Gamers will be able to drive an actual Chevrolet Volt in the game and feel the turns and speed just like a physical test drive.
