Chrysler schedules Portal electric minivan for 2020 production

Chrysler took a fairly bold step into the future when it brought the Pacifica Hybrid minivan to market, the first plug-in minivan even though Chrysler just calls it a hybrid. At the time, no other manufacturer was willing to add a plug-in hybrid powertrain to a minivan offering. Toyota pooh-poohed the idea, saying no one wanted to buy a hybrid minivan. (Where have we heard words like that before?) Now, after much success with the Pacifica Hybrid, Chrysler says it has scheduled the Portal, an all new fully electric minivan, for production beginning in 2020, according to Automotive News.
