1983 Chrysler Town & Country Electronic Voice Alert System Computer

Electronic voice alert (EVA) was an option available on many Chrysler K-car-based vehicles in the mid-1980s.[1]

Chrysler and Dodge used technology of the Texas Instruments LPC Speech Chips, that were also used in the Speak & Spell toy. The EVA would automatically lower the radio volume and deliver eleven different spoken warning messages[2] to drivers using a speech synthesizer[3] in 24 certain models.[4]

A similar system was used in 1984 to 1986 Nissan 300ZX, Nissan 200SX, and the Nissan Maxima GL and GLE models.[5] The messages are played from a miniature phonograph record,[6] similar as used in speaking dolls.

The EVA was available on the Chrysler LeBaron[7] (and the optional Mark Cross Edition), Chrysler Town and Country Wagon, Chrysler Fifth Avenue, Chrysler New Yorker,[8] Chrysler Laser, Dodge Daytona,[9] and Dodge 600 between 1983 and 1988.[10][11][12] Models sold in Canada accommodated both English and French. Models sold in Mexico spoke Spanish.[13][14]

Generally paired with a digital instrument cluster and considered the height of technology at the time, many drivers grew weary of the system constantly admonishing them to fasten their seatbelts and turned it off via removing a fuse,[12] which sometimes deactivates the fuel gauge.[15] Later models had the option to be turned off via a switch in the glovebox
