Chrysler Airflow EV Concept Is Expected To Debut In 2024
by AutoExpert | 9 December, 2021
Chrysler is the Stellantis brand in North America that badly needs a new vehicle, as it has been abandoned with the outdated 300 and the Pacifica. No new models are scheduled to be released in 2022 or 2023, but the group's huge ambitions for the brand include a completely electric crossover that is slated to be released in 2024.
Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares noted during the 2021 Software Day that the Chrysler EV Concept, which debuted in July, was more than simply a concept. This might indicate that a production model is not too far. Since trademarks in the United States were registered in 2019 and 2021, this model might bring back the "Airflow" name.
It is intended to display the newest technical breakthroughs in terms of electric drivetrains, ADAS, and infotainment/connectivity capabilities, thanks to Stellantis' components bin. According to the architecture's official preview, battery packs with capacities ranging from 87 to 104 kWh would enable an electric range of up to 440 miles (700 km).
For this sort of vehicle, a dual-electric motor arrangement with AWD would definitely be the best option.
Buyers of electric crossovers are lured to amenities like infotainment and connection, so the new Chrysler is likely to have tech that is at least competitive.
Although we'll have to wait and see whether the same configuration makes it into manufacturing, the concept included a large infotainment screen bordered by 4 other screens in the front and 2 more in the back. The five-seater cabin's opulent environment is completed with premium materials, lighting effects, and a panoramic roof.
