<p>If you thought our vehicles were intriguing from the outside, wait until you see &#8212; and hear &#8212; the Chrysler EV lineup. Chrysler’s provocative design becomes even more so, with seamless acceleration and smooth, silent driving courtesy of an ENVI electric-drive system. And we haven&#8217;t even started talking about the fuel savings…</p>
<p>For example, the Town &amp; Country Range-extended Electric Vehicle offers the luxurious seven-passenger capacity and driving range of today&#8217;s segment-leading minivan coupled with clean, quiet fuel efficiency not found anywhere on the road today.</p>
<p>The Chrysler EV augments its electric-drive system with an integrated small-displacement engine and generator to produce additional electricity to power the electric-drive system when needed. The result: eight to ten gallons of gas will yield 400 miles of tranquility. Chrysler wouldn&#8217;t design it any other way.</p>
<p>More additions to Chrysler’s EV portfolio will be announced in the months to come.</p>

<p>&#8220;Leave nothing behind&#8221; just took on a whole new meaning. The Jeep EV development vehicle infuses Wrangler&#8217;s go-anywhere capability with eco-friendly emissions.</p>
<p>For your typical commutes, the four-door Jeep EV won&#8217;t sip an ounce of gasoline or emit any carbon, relying on its electric motor and advanced lithium-ion battery system for the first 40 miles. When you feel like wandering, a small gasoline engine with an integrated electric generator produces the additional energy needed to power the electric-drive system &#8211; up to 400 miles on eight to ten gallons of gas.</p>
<p>If your adventure should include some off-roading, you can rely on the instant high torque of the electric-drive motor and the ability to precisely control each wheel independently to get you where you need to go &#8211; paved or unpaved.</p>
<p>Stay tuned for the announcement of more additions to the Jeep EV family in the months to come.</p>

<div id="attachment_16" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://www.evbeat.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/dodge_envi.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-16" title="dodge_envi" src="http://www.evbeat.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/dodge_envi-300x124.jpg" alt="dodge electric vehicle" width="300" height="124" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">dodge electric vehicle</p></div>
<p>You don&#8217;t have to slow down to keep the planet squeaky clean. And you&#8217;ll never have to stop for another gas station. Dodge EV packages zero tailpipe emissions in the unlikely form of a two-passenger rear-wheel-drive sports car with responsive, agile performance.</p>
<p>Bragging rights aren&#8217;t limited to your bank account balance: the instant high torque of the 200 kW electric-drive motor accelerates the Dodge EV to 60 mph in less than five seconds, with quarter-mile times of 13 seconds. The competition won&#8217;t hear you coming.</p>
<p>Thanks to the latest advanced lithium-ion battery technology, the Dodge EV has a continuous driving range of 150 to 200 miles – more than triple the average daily commute of most consumers. To recharge, plug into any standard 110-volt household outlet for eight hours. (You have to sleep at some point.)</p>
<p>Other Dodge vehicles will get the ENVI treatment. Look for announcements in the months to come.</p>
