Chrysler's new Halcyon concept on the Stellantis STLA platform

He greets you when you approach him, prepares to travel and plays you a song if you're feeling down.

Chrysler Airflow he's dead, he's here Halcyon. While the Airflow hinted that it could be a production vehicle, the Halcyon is definitely an all-electric concept. Chrysler doesn't mention powertrains, performance or estimated range, but based on real platform. In addition, it is packed to the brim with systems designed to help drivers establish “contact with the vehicle".

Chrysler Halcyon he is very short as his nose is only four inches above the ground. The front and rear doors open to 90 degrees and reveal a spacious interior without a B-pillar. To facilitate entry, the roof panels open in style gullwing and thus form something more reminiscent of T-top from the eighties as a futuristic concept. It's in the back modest trunk, hidden under the flat rear glass and the smooth shape of the rear of the car. In our eyes, it's a lot pure form, which is attractive, if somewhat anonymous. A large platform hides under the skin Stellantis STLA.

Interesting concept of opening the door to enter the car.

This is the same platform that the upcoming one will use Dodge Charger Daytona EV, but other links are also worth mentioning. Chrysler states that it does Halcyon used 800-volt architecture, which we expect from a high-performance To the Charger Daytona Banshee. The bodywork incorporates a lot of aerodynamic tricks, including a large passageway at the front where air is directed through the grille and over the bonnet. This is another feature of the model Charger Daytona, which is interesting given that it will Dodge debuted on March 5. Maybe Halcyon it's not as conceptual as we thought.

If you look Chryslersin the list of technical systems, you will be convinced of the opposite. Chrysler says it has Halcyon a Level 4 self-driving vehicle that features a steering wheel and pedals that can be fully retracted so that the driver is simply a passenger on the road. There is an elegant way to do this stargazing, which changes the opacity of the glass and tilts the seat, so you can watch the stars. Up front, there is a large transparent pillar-to-pillar screen, and the expanded full-screen information display can convey information to people inside the vehicle, whether they are driving or not. It drives everything lithium-sulfur battery unknown powers. This is where it gets a little weird (and even scary). Chrysler talks about it being Halcyon largely used artificial intelligence for a flexible driving experience, where the car will be you upon arrival greeted with a special light and sound display. It prepares itself for the drive, taking into account everything from weather conditions to your daily calendar (which is connected to the car).

Stargazing while resting in the car

Chrysler's vision of the Halcyon model is that they are car and driver in a legitimate, personal connection. The greeting does not end. Biometric scanners they recognize you, and after entering the vehicle, the vehicle plays soothing sounds and set everything the way you want. The sound that reduces stress, is shown on the screens in the vehicle and creates audio-visual experience, which reminds of Disney's Fantasy. When you arrive at your destination, the car gives you a special welcome with new sounds and lights. Chrysler he calls it "Harmony in motion".

Chrysler it does not suggest that it will Halcyon in any form shown on this site entered production. But this is another step towards becoming the company of the year 2025 introduced its first electric car and by the year 2028 became an all-electric brand. "The Chrysler Halcyon Concept creates a level of serenity that fully represents the Halcyon name," he said Chrysler's Executive Director Chris Fewell. "Halcyon presents innovative and sustainable mobility solutions that incorporate technology and offer value to customers while ensuring 'harmony in motion'."
