...it is not that stupid..only few people will use the 4x4 capability to the limit..but chrysler needs new model, not converting the present model into an electric drive, the present model is bad.. chevrolet has done a good job with the volt..others should do the same, but this is still a good surprise for the green planet

I honestly hope that Chrysler will at least modify the Europa to look better than that. As far as the other models, they need to die out. That is blatantly lazy and completely insulting to the customer. Sticking a battery propelled motor in a car and branding it as new is just downright wrong. I hope Chrysler suffers for this. Piss off Chrysler. Kudos, Chevy, for making a new car like the Volt.

Why wait for new models? The Wrangler and minivans are years away from a model changeover, so getting this technology to market fast makes sense, and actually adds some appeal to their lineup until they can un-do the design damage caused by Trevor Creed over the last five years. (But please make that Dodge better looking than that! Looks like a prev-gen Galant-based Avenger coupe. Ew.) The minivan and Jeep make sense for such a retrofit because both have the room for the hardware. Sure, they're not as cool as the Volt, and I'd rather have seen an electric Charger (lol), but hey, it's a sign of life in Auburn Hills.

The Lotus Europa seems to make more sense as a Dodge somehow. I don't see how Tesla can be pissed off, I am quite sure they didn't pay Lotus enough for an exclusive deal.

Ok, that Dodge EV, is using Gen 1 RSX headlamps. Thats very lame. The car itself(idea/mechanics) is allright, hopefully it all goes through like its supposed to.

a rebadged Lotus Europa? What's next? a Ferrari adaption? btw nice to see some development for Chrysler But I guess Lotus can get some more respect for their own "green" conceptions

Every automaker that wants to stay in existance needs to be developing these modern drivetrains and bringing them to market in a timely manner. Anyone with an ounce of business sense knows the most cost-effective way to do that is by converting existing vehicles first. The minivan and Jeep pictured both just hit the market in the past couple of years so rushing an entirely new vehicle to market would be a waste. Although I like the Volt, it doesn't have the seating capacity to fit my family. I'm hoping GM is porting the Volts technology to other vehicls in their lineup. A more utilitarian GM vehicle borrowing the Volt's technology could very easily outsell the Volt despite not having the Volt's "halo" image.
