Inside and out, the Airflow concept looks great. Given how things are progressing in the automotive industry, that may sound less impressive in a couple years. No specifics were shared, but this Chrysler's battery pack is intended to deliver between 350 and 400 miles of range, a more-than-competitive figure, at least right now. With around 400 hp on tap, it should be quite a performer, though there's enough room underneath that rakish body to fit larger motors, so an even higher-performance model could be introduced in the future, assuming, you know, the vehicle gets built at all. Even the driver gets a camera, but it only works when the vehicle is in park.Īs for nuts and bolts, there aren't too many details to share, but the Chrysler Airflow concept features all-wheel drive, courtesy of two 150-kilowatt (201-horsepower) electric motors, one mounted at each end of the vehicle. ![]() Increasing the vehicle's usefulness, each seat features an individual camera, so passengers can join group video chats, meaning you're never not available to participate in meetings, so don't even think about lying to your boss. Information can easily be shared between passengers by swiping it from one screen to another. This array of displays is designed to give each passenger a personalized experience, allowing them to seamlessly connect to their digital lives and access entertainment and apps. There are C-shaped air slots, though they totally blend in with the dashboard design.Įxpect this vehicle to feature a phalanx of eight screens, including one for each rear-seat passenger and your copilot riding shotgun. A crystalline control dial looks like a piece of jewelry floating above the center console, adding a bit of richness to the interior, though curiously, the Airflow doesn't appear to have any air vents. Reducing the environmental impact, those cow hides are vegetable-tanned and the floor mats as well as the carpeting are made of recycled materials. The design features a decisively elegant aerodynamic exterior and a modern, sophisticated interior that takes the customer on a new level of digital delight,” explained Stellantis Chief Design Officer Ralph Gilles.Inside, the Airflow's cabin is bright and airy, with acres of white leather and contrasting accents. ![]() It is the result of a thoughtful synthesis of the full arsenal of Stellantis’ connected vehicle technology - inside and out. “The Chrysler Airflow Concept represents the start of the brand’s journey toward a fully electrified future. Nevertheless, Chrysler remains hopeful in its journey to the electric future. There's no doubt Crysler will face tough competition in the EV segment with many carmakers having a good headstart in the category. The Stellantis-owned American car brand only has three vehicles listed on its US website: the Pacifica minivan and its hybrid variant as well as the Chrysler 300 sedan.Ĭhrysler looks to add a new model - the first BEV in the automaker's lineup - by 2025, and hopes to make its way back in the big league by offering an all-EV roster in six years' time. ![]() The Airflow Concept marks the beginning of a new era for Chrysler as all the innovations used in the concept car will potentially make their way in future production models as Chrysler also announced its plans of going all-electric by 2028. The motors draw power from a battery that’s designed to achieve between a 350- and 400-mile range on a single charge. ![]() Propulsion will come from two 150kW electric drive motors (EDMs), one in the front and one in the rear. In addition to offering an advanced digital experience, the Chrysler Airflow Concept is also equipped with STLA AutoDrive, which delivers Level 3 autonomous driving capabilities and will be upgradable via OTA updates.
