Far from it, in fact, assuming there&#8217;s truth to the rumors that the Pentastar will be showing off both an electric version of the soon-to-be-US-bound <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/category\/fiat\">Fiat 500<\/a> along with a Chrysler-ized version of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/category\/lancia\">Lancia Delta<\/a> hatchback.<\/p>\n<p>While the Chrysler-branded concept is said to be nothing more than a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/10\/12\/rumormill-lancia-delta-coming-to-america-with-a-chrysler-badge\/\">standard-fare Delta emblazoned with Chrysler&#8217;s trademark chrome fascia<\/a>, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/10\/12\/report-chrysler-fiat-partnering-on-electric-car\/\">electric Fiat<\/a> 500 is a bit more interesting. We&#8217;ve heard that the automaker&#8217;s erstwhile ENVI group was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/11\/09\/report-chrysler-disbands-envi-group-ev-development-will-contin\/\">disbanded and assimilated<\/a> into the rest of the company&#8217;s product development workforce, so we&#8217;re curious to see the integration of a battery-powered drivetrain into the little urban runabout. Will it be a fully-functional vehicle or just a mock-up of what could potentially be possible?<\/p>\n<p>Not surprisingly, we&#8217;ll also be treated to the rest of the Fiat 500 lineup, including the 500C Cabriolet (no word on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2009\/12\/21\/video-is-this-the-marketing-we-can-expect-for-the-fiat-500-in-t\/\">bikini-clad models<\/a>) and the sporty 500 Abarth. Finally, tucked into a corner of the Chrysler booth in Detroit will also reportedly be such premium Italian machinery as the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/458+italia\">Ferrari 458 Italia<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/make\/maserati\/\">Maserati GranCabrio<\/a>.
