Chrysler is celebrating Earth Day by unveiling an electric minivan... that you won't be able to buy (yet). They're making them for the US Postal Service, and so far 4 out of an eventual 250 have been built. The electric minivan is based on the Chrysler Town & Country EV that we wrote about last year, and the powertrain will be very similar except that the USPS version is a non range-extended version because postal routes generally are only around 20 miles.Wednesday, April 22, 2009
