Chrysler will only sell electric vehicles by 2028, the company announced at the 2022 consumer electronics show. stellantis, the iconic American brand owned by stellantis, will sell electric cars by 2028.

The vehicle unveiled at CES is meant to be just a concept. Chrysler says its first EV will start production in 2025.

Stellantis is the fourth-largest automaker in the world. The company announced a comprehensive plan last year to electrify the lineups at most of its brands.

The airflow, which alludes to a historic Chrysler nameplate, is meant to serve as a preview of what’s to come. Despite its backward-looking branding, the concept car is an indication of the’future direction’ for the nearly 100-year-old car company.

The concept airflow comes with all-wheel drive thanks to two 150kw Motors, one in each axle. The company did n’t provide details on the battery’s size or energy capacity, but it did estimate a range of 350-400 miles per charge.

The airflow will come equipped with stellantis”- stla Autodrive’ and advanced driver assist system (ADAS). stellantis recently held an event tout its new software products.

Level 3 refers to highly automated driving where the driver still needs to be able to take over the vehicle upon request. Level 4 automation means that the car is capable of handling most driving situations itself, whereas level 5 is largely theoretical and covers complete automation in any condition.

Chrysler said its A8 sedan would come with a feature called traffic jam pilot. When active, it would relieve human drivers of the need to pay attention during stop-and-go traffic. The feature was contingent on approval from local authorities.

Much like the Hyundai ioniq 5, the airflow will have a long-distance and large 22-inch tires for a more low-slung riding style. The airflow announced itself as an EV right away with the lights on the front and rear of the vehicle.

Inside, the vehicle is chock-a-block with screens: four in the front and two for rear passengers. The instrument cluster screen is set back a ways from the steering wheel, closer to the windshield than the dashboard. An additional screen sits below the main infotainment screen for HVAC controls and seating adjustments.

Chrysler says the user interface will be defined by’iPad personalization,’ which allows drivers to connect to their’digital lives’ through the screen of their cars. The airflow will come with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

All of stellantis’ brands have been slow to embrace EV technology. Dodge is planning to release an all-electric muscle car in 2024. Jeep says there will be electric versions of the Wrangler, Cherokee, and Wagoneer by 2025.

The Italian-American automaker has done some due diligence on a number of struggling EV startups in the US. Before it merged with PSA group, Fiat Chrysler said it would team up with Foxconn to build EVs for Chinese consumers.
