Electric and Hybrid Cars

The Dodge Circuit EV is an all electric plug-in with a range of 150-200 miles and this thing is fast.   With its 200 kW (268 hp) electric motor it goes 0-60 in less than 5 seconds, standing 1/4 low 13’s, and top speed greater than 120 mph.  The body styling looks great and I can’t wait for a test drive of this one.

This car is part of the Chrysler motors new ENVI platform.  The other models are:  Jeep Patriot EV, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited EV, Chrysler Town & Country EV.  There currently aren’t any prices listed for these vehicles, but I am sure a couple models will be in the mid $20,000’s.  These models will also be available to use the $7,500 federal tax credit.
