The Chrysler Corp.’s answer to the oil consumption issues that spark conversations around America is the new Dodge EV (Electric Vehicle). The new Dodge EV is a derivative of the Lotus Europa. The Dodge EV uses a 268hp electric motor powered by lithium batteries. With this configuration it is said to have a range of 150 to 200 miles and make it from 0 to 60 in under 5 seconds. To charge the batteries it will require a full 4-hour charge from a 220 volt outlet or 8 hours from a standard 110 volt outlet. This is a full electric car comparable to the Tesla Roadster.
