Chrysler’s planned electric crossover (originally the Airflow concept) has been placed on indefinite hold as of January 2025, with development paused and suppliers instructed to halt spending. Originally slated for late 2024/early 2025 on STLA Medium platform with 350-400 miles range and ~400 hp dual-motor AWD, the project evolved to a new design (possibly Halcyon-inspired) before Stellantis paused it amid EV market shifts and low demand.
