Chrysler and A123 Systems come together to develop advanced battery technology and also provide new employment opportunities. Facilitated by an agreement with Chrysler LLC and its commitment to introduce production electric-drive vehicles starting in 2010, A123Systems has received a $100 million tax grant from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) to build a full-scale battery manufacturing facility in Michigan. The new plant will bring additional high-tech jobs to Michigan, and will help Chrysler achieve its leadership goals in electric vehicle development and production.
“Today’s recognition of this Michigan-based partnership represents tremendous forward thinking by the government, and demonstrates how government can greatly affect the development of – and costs associated with – this type of advanced technology,” said John Bozzella, Senior Vice President – External Affairs and Public Policy. “Chrysler is proud to participate in this effort that will bring high-technology jobs to Michigan, and will help solidify American innovation in electric vehicles – ultimately leading to more advanced fuel-efficient vehicles for the American consumer and the environment.”
Last week, Chrysler LLC announced A123Systems as the supplier for energy storage systems for Chrysler’s first-generation ENVI Range-extended Electric Vehicles and battery only Electric Vehicles.
The heart of ENVI’s battery system is a scalable battery module, as demonstrated in ENVI’s five electric-drive vehicles showcased at the 2009 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The five vehicles included the Dodge Circuit EV, Jeep Wrangler EV, Jeep Patriot EV, Chrysler Town & Country EV and the Chrysler 200C EV concept. At the reveal, Chrysler announced its intention to bring the company’s first production electric vehicle to market in 2010.

It may have been a forgotten model as far as Chrysler is concerned but the Chrysler Town & Country Van launches a 2009 version that is expected to help the Chrysler brand as far as improving the sales boost that the company needs today.
The 2009 Chrysler Town & Country van still is a roomy, comfortable vehicle with top government crash test ratings and unique features, such as satellite TV and second-row seats that swivel to face the rear. And with leather-trimmed seats, power sunroof, power sliding doors and rear liftgate, trailer tow package, power folding third-row seat and rear-seat entertainment center, the Town & Country remains a top luxury minivan.
It’s the flagship 2009 Chrysler Town & Country Limited that has a starting retail price, including destination charge, of $37,600 with 251-horsepower V-6. The price includes curtain air bags, antilock brakes and electronic stability control as well as three-zone air conditioning, 115-volt electrical outlet, heated front and second-row seats, power liftgate and shades for the second-row, power sliding doors.
With rear-seat DVD entertainment system, enhanced by dual screens and Sirius back-seat TV, the price is nearly $40,000.
Town & Country prices are competitive with other minivans, including the 2009 Honda Odyssey, which starts at $27,025 and goes to more than $41,000, and the 2009 Toyota Sienna, which starts at $25,285 and goes to more than $41,000.
