    I already made this comment (fucking hamsters) but this could be genuinely cool if we could put all that electric-motor torque to good use... with 4wd and a low range, maybe some skid plates... you know, the parts they already make.

    Chrysler doesn't have anything smaller and more aerodynamic in their product range for this technology? Much as I hate to say it, even the PT Snoozer would be a better platform for this.

    If it's going to be a front-wheel drive vehicle they might as well just kill the concept in utero. The real segment for this product would be to appeal to all those folks who currently are driving (or looking at) Subaru Forresters who might want something that was a little more eco-conscious. If they could beat Subaru to market with not just a hybrid, but a hybrid with electric-only capability, they could have a real winner on their hands. But it's got to have 4WD, otherwise it's just a funny looking hatchback that, as flyingstitch points out, just further dilutes the brand.


    As a side note, I really do hate the looks of the Patriot. It's too squat. Put the same hybrid system in a Liberty and I might actually replace my Cherokee.

    Hey, a 16-second quarter blows my Benz out of the water! Then again, most things other than VW vans do, too. Le sigh...


    Also: Thank god they chose this and not the Compass or Caliber. At least the Patriot looks decent.
