Three green concepts from Chrysler
22 January 2008
Chrysler
has unveiled three brand new concept vehicles – each featuring a different
advanced alternative fuel system.
Unveiled
at the Detroit motorshow, the Chrysler ecoVoyager, Jeep Renegade and Dodge ZEO
take advantage of the best new technologies and couple them with the room,
comfort, speed and style customers want from their family vehicle.
Chrysler
UK managing director, Simon Elliott, is reported as saying that providing
exceptional fuel economy and reducing emissions is part of the company’s
environmental commitment.
He
said these three new designs show that Chrysler is moving all of its brands
forward with a green agenda.
The
Chrysler ecoVoyager is a four-door, four-passenger concept. Its front wheels
are driven by an electric motor, with power primarily supplied by a lithium-ion
battery pack capable of satisfying a consumer’s typical daily commute of less
than 40 miles.
Meanwhile
the Jeep Renegade concept is a sporty, minimalist two-seater that uses an advanced
propulsion system with a 40-mile range lithium-ion battery pack and a 1.5-litre
BLUETEC diesel engine which allows for journeys up to 400 miles.
Finally,
the 2008 Dodge ZEO (Zero Emissions Operation) concept is a four-passenger,
all-electric, 2+2 sport wagon that embraces the bold, emotional characteristic
of the Dodge brand.
