Chrysler’s first electric vehicle is due in 2025 and the brand will go EV-only in 2028

Chrysler has announced plans to introduce an “innovative electric concept car” on February 13.
Designed to provide a glimpse into the brand’s all-electric future, the model is a “forward-looking” concept that likely foreshadows their first electric vehicle that is due in 2025. The brand will then go fully electric in 2028, which shouldn’t be too hard as their lineup currently consists of one vehicle.
While Chrysler isn’t saying much about the concept, they released a teaser image that suggests it could be called the Halcyon. That remains to be seen, but Oxford Languages defines the word as “denoting a period of time in the past that was idyllically happy and peaceful.”

It’s hard to determine what else the teaser is showing, but it could suggest the concept will have soft curves and an illuminated grille. It’s also possible the dark blue accents could be hinting at a solar roof, but that’s just a guess at this point.
We’ll learn full details next week, but Chrysler confirmed additional teasers will be released on February 9 and 12. The full concept will then be unveiled on February 13 at 5:01 a.m. ET.

There’s more questions than answers at this point, but the concept likely rides on the STLA Large platform that was introduced last month. The architecture is billed as the “most flexible BEV-native platform in the industry, underpinning car, crossover and SUV vehicle types in the D and E segments.”
Stellantis has already confirmed at least one future Chrysler model will ride on the platform and the company has said initial battery pack options will have capacities of between 85 and 118 kWh. The batteries should enable sedans to travel up to 500 miles (805 km) on a single charge.
