Talks About Cars

At motor shows like the North American International Auto Show, one can always find a concept vehicle. Many of us go to these shows just to get a glimpse of the latest cool vehicle. Although concept vehicles will not be marketed in the near future, we keep coming back to see them.

At the NAIAS, concept vehicles are once again being showcased. One of them is the Chrysler ecoVoyager Concept. With that eco squeezed in there, you will already have an idea that this is a green car. And you will be right in assuming that it is a green car as it is powered by a high powered Lithium-ion battery pack. Apart from that, the ecoVoyager also has an advanced fuel cell power source. As of now, the probability of this four-door passenger car being available in the market very soon is not that much.

Another concept vehicle gracing the NAIAS with its presence is the Dodge ZEO concept. This carries on the tradition of the Dodge badge known for muscle cars. It is a sport wagon which looks stunning which is really not surprising as Dodge is one of the better known brands when it comes to designing sports cars. And while the ZEO concept is one fast car, it is eco-friendly as well as it is powered by an electric propulsion system. Unlike the Volt which needs a range extender, the ZEO does not need it as its powerful Li-ion battery pack can power the vehicle for 250 miles. Cool eh?

Although these vehicles will be very good indeed for consumers and the environment, automakers will not be able to mass produce these vehicles if they cannot bring the cost of production down.
