Dodge EV seen in the flesh at LA Auto Show

Could you tell a few auto shows were going on in California? In case you've somehow overlooked it, a number of automakers are showing off some swank new in-car connectivity options, and Dodge is striving to elicit even more fluids from your saliva glands by showing off the Dodge EV. We initially heard about this mythical automobile back in September, and now the very Viper-inspired whip is wowing onlookers in LA. The all-electric plug-in boasts mid-mounted batteries, a 268-horsepower engine, a 150-mile range and a 0 to 60 time of under five seconds. Have a peek at what you'll be attempting to finance "as early as 2010" down in the read link.

They had the Dodge EV over at a dealership by my work so I stopped by and checked it out. It definitely has the styling of a Lotus. And the comfort of one too. It's a tight cabin for sure. I snapped a few pics for those interested:

Offer it in black with red stripes, and I'll buy it.
