Chrysler has unveiled the Halcyon Concept, a model that reflects the brand’s commitment to transitioning to a fully electric future. This concept car combines sustainability with advanced technology, providing an insight into Chrysler’s vision for future mobility, which includes autonomous driving, personalized experiences, and innovative technological integrations.
The Halcyon Concept features several advanced technologies, including STLA Brain, STLA SmartCockpit, and STLA AutoDrive. These technologies aim to integrate technology and design seamlessly.
The vehicle’s design focuses on aerodynamics and aesthetics, with a streamlined silhouette, butterfly-hinged doors, and a front air blade designed to enhance performance and increase the battery-electric vehicle (BEV) range. The interior of the Halcyon Concept incorporates sustainable materials, such as recycled music CDs for the Chrysler wing logos, and introduces a new seating arrangement with retractable rear seats.
The Halcyon Concept includes several modes, such as Prepare Mode and Welcome/Entry Mode, which use biometric identification for a personalized welcome. It also features personalized vehicle cymatics and a Level 4 autonomous driving experience, including a Stargazing Mode. The vehicle is powered by 800V lithium-sulfur EV batteries, which aim to reduce the carbon footprint compared to existing battery technologies.
This concept vehicle is part of Chrysler’s broader strategy to transition to an all-electric portfolio by 2028, aligning with Stellantis’ Dare Forward 2030 plan to reduce its global carbon footprint. The Halcyon Concept follows previous models such as the Chrysler Portal, Airflow, and Synthesis Cockpit Demonstrator, indicating ongoing innovation in Chrysler’s design and technology approach.
