Chrysler recently unveiled 3 EVs:

Dodge EV

1/4 mile 13 seconds
Top speed 120+mph
Range 150-200miles. 8hr charge on 110V, 4hr on 110V, 26kWh pack.
Seems to be a Tesla Roadster competitor.

Jeep EV

Will have a gas engine like the Chevy Volt as a backup. Like the Chevy Volt it will have 40 miles of all electric range and ~400miles in total. 27 kWh pack.

Chrysler EV
190 kW (255 horsepower)
350 N•m (258 lb.-ft.)

1/4 mile 16.2 seconds
Top speed 100+mph
Also has gas engine, with 40 miles all electric and 400 miles in total. 22kWh Battery.

They target to release one of them for customers in 2010 and have 100 for fleet usage in 2009.

I try to do updates since the specs are reported differently in different places.
