Today, Google released the car dock accessory for the Google Nexus One. The dock comes in at $55USD and is used on either a car dashboard or windshield.

The dock uses Bluetooth to speak with the Nexus One and automatically establishes the connection when the Nexus One is inserted into the dock.

Using the Car Home application, users are able to easily access Maps and Navigation, Contacts, and Voice Search. The dock also has built-in speakers which serve to provide music playback and calls using the speakerphone.

The Nexus One Car Dock is the perfect place to put your phone when you’re in the car. In addition to holding your Nexus One, the car dock also charges your phone’s battery, lets you use your phone handsfree, and provides easier access to voice and navigation apps.

The dock’s built-in speakers and volume controls also enhance the in-car music and media experience. And the Car Home app, which loads automatically, makes it easy to access Maps and Navigation, Voice Search, Contacts, and Music.

You can mount the dock on the windshield or dashboard, and it ships with an adhesive disc that lets you attach it to a textured surface as well. The dock comes with a charger to fit into your car’s 12V utility socket, and the holder can rotate for flexible orientation.
