Chrysler plans to go all-electric by 2028

Car manufacturer Chrysler has announced plans for an all-electric portfolio by 2028.

The brand's transformation will include the launch of its first battery electric vehicle (BEV) by 2025 and a future all-electric lineup.

The vehicles will be produced using clean manufacturing processes and made with recyclable and renewable materials, with a new crossover concept called the Chrysler Airflow.

The Airflow is expected to deliver 350 to 400 miles of range on a single charge.

Chris Feuell, CEO of the Chrysler brand, owned by Stellantis said: “The Chrysler Airflow Concept represents the future direction of the Chrysler brand, providing a peek at the dynamic design, advanced technologies and seamless connectivity that will characterize the full-electric portfolio we plan to reach by 2028.

“Chrysler is an iconic American automotive brand, with a heritage in creating new advanced technologies and product segments. Our brand will serve at the forefront as Stellantis transforms to deliver clean mobility and connected customer experiences.”

The announcement follows its recent innovation – the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid – the “first and only” plug-in hybrid mini van.
