Tomorrow, at the Chicago Auto Show, Ford will officially unveil the Transit Connect, its first plug-in electric vehicle, a compact commercial van.

The Transit Connect will have a range of about 80 miles on a full charge, a top speed of 75 miles per hour, and it will be available later this year to commercial fleet customers.

It's the first in a series of electrified Ford vehicles. Next year, they plan to release a battery-powered Focus sedan, and, in 2012, they will be rolling out two new gasoline-electric hybrids.

As the model American automaker from a financial health perspective, it's good to see that Ford is investing in vehicles that will help us keep the planet healthy.
