Stellantis says yes to the Tesla charge port, in code. Kia is supposedly planning on an electric Stinger. And Chrysler turns out a new EV concept showcasing a lot of potential innovation. This and extra, below at Green Car Reports.
Chrysler has revealed the Halcyon Concept EV, powered by lithium-sulfur batteries, enabling a lengthy driving array and very fast charging– supposedly, 200 miles of range with a five-minute cost– and integrating in-the-road dynamic cordless charging. The large, butterfly-door sedan is strictly concept-car area, yet the Chrysler brand name plans to have an all-electric profile by 2028 and today its only plug-in product is the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid.
Chrysler parent Stellantis yesterday validated that it’s embracing the recommended requirement SAE J3400– indeed, past the lingo, that’s the Tesla charge port. As the last significant automaker to embrace the Tesla standard, also called NACS, Stellantis isn’t showing off all the benefits of Tesla Supercharger accessibility as other car manufacturers have.
And according to a report, Kia is getting along with a fully electrical Stinger successor, called EV8. The high-performance EV may show up in 2026, obtain Kia’s biggest battery pack yet, and work as a flagship car for the brand in terms of both variety and efficiency.
