Chrysler EcoVoyager Concept
Chrysler is combining the luxury of a private jet (not to mention space) with a crossover in the vein of the Caravan. But you won’t have to give up environmental friendliness when driving from point A to B. Chrysler’s EcoVoyager exemplifies what the company calls ‘elegant simplicity.’ EcoVoyager’s powertrain is a system of both hydrogen fuel cell and electric motor to provide a no-emissions range of 300 miles.
EcoVoyager has a 268 horsepower motor backed up by lithium-ion battery packs under the EcoV hood. Regenerative brakes allow for otherwise lost energy during braking to be re-used, increasing the normal range of 40 miles per average daily commute.
EcoVoyager’s supporting hydrogen fuel cell unit brings it to a dramatic 300 mile marker. And like its no-emissions electric counterpart the hydrogen fuel cell also produces none, emitting only its water vapor.
Inside, Chrysler combines futuristic shuttle craft design with a layout that looks almost yacht like surfaces. The EcoVoyager’s ‘effortless luxury’ is thanks to its easily accessible touch screen control panels and gear shifter. A panoramic glass sunroof keeps the vehicle open and airy, allowing an almost 360 degree view opf the world around you. Maybe the production model will include a see through Plexiglas floor.
