Chrysler will unveil three electrically driven concept vehicles at the 2008 Detroit Auto Show in January.

ZEO stands for Zero Emission Operation.

Described as a 2+2 sport wagon - meaning it has small back seats - the ZEO does not have any form of on-board power generation. It is purely a plug-in vehicle with an expected range, Chrysler says, of 250 miles on a charge.

The ZEO is supposed to be a performance car, fitting the image of Dodge as Chrysler Corp.'s performance brand. To emphasize that, its design features a long hood despite the fact that it wouldn't have a big gasoline engine. It will ride on huge 23-inch wheels
