Keeping the Wheels spinning at the Detroit Auto Show

In Detroit the major,and the not so major (but up and coming-if that can be said of China!), carmakers have converged to put on a world class show of automotive excellence.There are more than 30 all-new cars making their world debuts,say Auto Express.

And ,green is the colour of intent,though ideas are in evidence ahead of substance.
As previously reported,last time,the Japanese car manufacturers are most convincing with their low emission technology claims of winning the race to produce the batteries necessary for their hybrids.The Americans though are anxious to show what they are doing.Chrysler have put up a trinity of concept cars described by their spokesperson,Frank Klegan, as "pure concepts". This seemed to signal showcased ideas which might make it eventually into production some time.Enter the Jeep Renegade (bluetec diesel), Dodge ZEO (electric)(shown above), and Chrysler ecoVoyager(electric with hydrogen cell 'range extender').

Talking about the three new Chrysler concepts, Simon Elliott, Managing Director of Chrysler UK, said: “Providing exceptional fuel economy and reducing emissions is part of Chrysler’s environmental commitment. In fact, we have already seen some of the benefits of our green approach in the UK with the launch of so many Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge models with fuel-efficient diesel engines in the last few years."
