Chrysler exposes Dodge EV

Chrysler has revealed the Dodge EV, a Lotus-based vehicle with an electric power train.

The Dodge EV is founded on the Lotus Europa coupe, but has a Tesla Roadster-like electric power train which gives 0-60mph speedup in less than 5 seconds. It’s said to have a series of 150-200 miles between recharges and can be fully charged in 4 hours, using a 220-volt domestic power supply. A model is presently under screening.
Chrysler is also functioning on a 4 door Jeep Wrangler-based extended-range electric vehicle which can do 40 miles in electric-only mode and up to 400 miles with its small engine in operation and a similarly-propelled Town & Country/Voyager MPV. The company will have at least one of these vehicles in production by 2010.

Chrysler is also in the process of formulating a fully-electric car codenamed ENVI and a tiny electric runaround called ‘peapod’.

Another great car of Dodge is off course the Dodge Viper. Well here you find some specs of the 2008 Dodge Viper SRT-10 ACR. What a ride! To bad it ain’t listed in the top10 fastest cars. What we do know is, that you need a good car insurance for this ride!
