Chrysler’s new electric sedan takes direct inspiration from the Halcyon, a design study that captivated audiences when it was revealed last year. The concept car shared its DNA with the Dodge Charger EV and introduced a sleek, bold silhouette paired with a vision for sustainable mobility. In a recent interview with Detroit Free Press, Chrysler CEO Christine Feuell suggested that the new production model will not only draw from the Halcyon’s design but may also serve as the official successor to the discontinued Chrysler 300. She emphasized her strong belief in the comeback of sedans, stating that the segment is poised for a revival.

Reports indicate that the production version of the new Chrysler 300 will be built on the same platform as the Dodge Charger EV. That means a robust 400 volt electrical architecture paired with a massive 100.5 kilowatt hour battery. If those numbers hold, expect up to 670 horsepower and an estimated torque of 850 newton meters. Estimated driving range is around 417 kilometers for the R/T version and 418 kilometers for the Scat Pack version. With these specs, Chrysler is clearly aiming for performance that rivals gas powered muscle sedans, but with the quiet punch of electric torque.

The EV sedan isn’t the only exciting project in Chrysler’s pipeline. The brand is also working on a sport utility vehicle that shares the same futuristic DNA, as well as a major refresh for the Pacifica minivan expected in 2026. While there’s no confirmed launch date for the new Chrysler 300, insiders suggest that it may hit the streets by 2027, with official details possibly arriving later this year. The strategy is clear: Chrysler wants to reclaim relevance in the EV era by banking on design nostalgia, powerful specs, and an aggressive return to the spotlight.
