Major U.S. car brand to go full electric, will no longer offer internal combustion vehicles

Automaker Chrysler just announced plans to go completely electric by 2028, anticipating the release of its first electric vehicle by 2025.

Chrysler announced the plans along with a new AI-enabled vehicle system powered by a battery that the company says can travel 350 to 400 miles per charge, as The Associated Press reported.

Chrysler is part of Europe’s Stellantis, which last month announced a new strategy to embed AI-enabled software into millions of vehicles across its 14 different brands. This could gain Stellantis $22.6 billion in annual revenue by 2030.

This is all part of the race among automakers to produce more completely electric and hybrid cars that also have more autonomous driving features. Overall, this would begin shifting cars away from gasoline-powered engines.

As one of the main American brands of Stellantis, Chrysler will be on the front lines of this change in the auto industry in North America.

Might as well, I would never consider ever being a Chrysler, Electric or Not Electric.

Where's the power gonna come from? Not coal...gas...oil...or nuclear. Rat Party Headquarters has vowed to put them *all* out of business. I guess we'll soon be back in 1920...when only the elite could afford “personal” transportation.

Save those Chrysler hood medallions because they will be collector’s items after the company ceases to exist.

a new AI-enabled vehicle system

And of course the requisite assurances it's protected against hacking, I'm sure.

Should never have been bailed out in the first place.

“What is wrong with people? OMG batteries are worse polluters than gasoline.”

It’s all about feelings. Facts are irrelevant. The crazy thing is that this has infected the boardrooms of some pretty big companies.

As another poster said, I wouldn’t buy a Chrysler, (Fiat), electric or internal combustion. It doesn’t matter to me what they do. Just imagine being caught in VA on I95 in an electric car. People have become jaw droppingly stupid.

Make the federal government purchase a fleet of this rigs and issue them to the EPA, DOJ, and FBI.

Just a thought to improve the effectiveness of these agencies. /s

It hasn’t been a US brand for 25 years.

” I guess we’ll soon be back in 1920...when only the elite could afford “personal” transportation.”

That is the real intent. Sadly, many Dem voters will support this, right up to the time when they themselves can no longer afford personal transportation.

Just a commuter car, won't be an SUV.

Fix it again Tony. Seriously though, Chrysler was raped by Benz and co and never fully recovered. Then Obama brought in the Italians to solve the unreliable tired design...
