Like Two Peas in a Pod…
How cute is this? It is the GEM Peapod, by Chrysler LLC. GEM stands for “Green Eco Mobility.” So not only is this little … thing … absolutely adorable, it is good for the environment as well!
It was revealed at the headquarters over in Michigan — Auburn Hills, to be exact. The Peapod name naturally comes from the vehicle’s exterior, which is quite like a pod, with its prominent window and its wholly organic silhouette. Inside, there is iPod integration, the seats are mesh to encourage circulation of air, and the materials used inside are not just recycled, they are also recyclable. It does not get any better than that!
The vehicle runs on six 12 volt electrolyte batteries — flooded ones, even, and it has an onboard charger.
