Chrysler makes the move to stop/start standard

Emissions standards are getting tougher and OEMs are constantly battling to make savings where they can, while improving fuel economy. Aside from developing alternative powertrains, OEMs are looking into ways of improving conventional diesel and gasoline engines, which look set to be the dominant powertrain for the foreseeable future. Chrysler is the latest OEM to add stop/start technology as standard to certain models in its line-up.
