Chrysler's first EV? Nuh-uh.
This $120,000 electric minivan was the company's first (and likely last) commercially available EV
Chrysler TEVan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Or did you mean first to go into production of the 3 concepts they've recently shown?
Nuh uh!
I don't think Chrysler is seriously making plans for EV's. They're too occupied with desperately trying to escape bankruptcy (not to mention scrounging in the couch cushions for enough money to meet payroll) to be spending money on an extremely low-volume, loss leader EV program.
Call me a cynic, but I don't believe this car is anything more than a shameless public relations effort to manufacture some "green" cred, and show decision makers (ie. politicians they're hoping will bail them out of trouble with taxpayer dough) that if they're
just given one more chance they can be innovative too.
