Back in January at the Detroit Auto Show, Chrysler unveiled three electric vehicle concepts including the Dodge Zeo (pictured), but now the company is moving toward its first production hybrid sales this month, AutoblogGreen reports. Chrysler co-president Jim Press said on Tuesday that three new electric drive prototypes would be shown to dealers at a meeting later in September—without specifying which.
The report said that Press did indicate that plug-in hybrid vehicles are the company's top priority; in fact, entire new platforms are being developed with electric power in mind. Press also said in the report that Chrysler still has access to Daimler's technology, post breakup, and that the company is working with several different battery suppliers.
