“The Chrysler Airflow Concept represents the start of the brand’s journey toward a fully electrified future,” Ralph Gilles, chief design officer for Chrysler’s parent company Stellantis, said in a press release. “It is the result of a thoughtful synthesis of the full arsenal of Stellantis’ connected vehicle technology – inside and out.”
The vehicle’s artificial intelligence system is powered by a battery with the ability to travel 350 to 400 miles per battery charge.
