i heart chrysler’s eco-voyager


Chrysler’s Eco-Voyager has been named top concept truck in the annual Eyes On Design competition.

This handsome electric car just won a design award at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The designers are still not sure (and neither am I) why she was classified as a truck when clearly she’s so much more.

More details:

The vehicle runs on a lithium-ion battery pack which is able to deliver 64 kilometres (that’s 40 miles) on one charge, but the range can be extended to 480 kilometres by using its on-board fuel cell range extender that keeps the battery charged. It also features a regenerative braking system that transfers energy generated during braking to help keep the battery charged. Source:: Canada.com,

Can you imagine? Apparently, the reviews have been wonderful especially in terms of performance.


Isn’t she sleek….My mind is really opening up here…


Look at that double sunroof….More details….

AutoblogGreen says, “Chrysler’s concept for 2008 – the ecoVoyager – marries an elegant American design with fuel cell Range-extended Electric Vehicle technology.”…..and continues to say,

The 2008 Chrysler ecoVoyager concept vehicle celebrates the romance of automobile travel embodied in a four-door, four-passenger, distinctively American automobile of spirited design,” said Greg Howell, principal ecoVoyager concept exterior designer. “While the ecoVoyager’s supple, flowing one-box shape is purposely designed to achieve aerodynamic efficiencies, it also pushes the Chrysler brand language in a new direction of ‘elegant simplicity,’ by taking full advantage of the space normally occupied by a bulky conventional powertrain setup to drastically reduce the front overhang.

There’s still so much more….What does she look like inside?


Comfortable, yes, doesn’t feel too tight to me….


I will test drive her one day….soon!

It feels like the beginning of a new trend that will involve more sustainable cars, less fuel combined with some eco-luxury. Beautiful.
