Chrysler unveils two-seater cockpit concept with an ‘infotainment system’ and AI

By William On Jan 4, 2023

It may look a little like the inside of the Back to the Future DeLorean or KITT from Knight Rider, but this is actually a real concept by car brand Chrysler.

The firm Stellantis unveiled the two-seater cockpit design at the Consumer Electronics Show 2023 in Las Vegas.

It features a 37-inch glass ‘infotainment system’, an AI assistant that can plan routes based on your calendar and ‘wellness experiences’ that include meditation, karaoke and a DJ game.

The AI assistant, known as MyDay, would provide a ‘welcome’ to the driver based on biometric recognition, while also updating them on the vehicle’s charge status and the weather forecast.

There is still no sign of what Chrysler’s first electric vehicle will look like on the outside, but this concept offers of glimpse of how their cars of the future may appear on the inside.

The cockpit concept also includes self-driving features.

This Level 3 autonomous driving would allow motorists to multitask and access features such as video conferencing.

The AI imagined in the design could also recommend lunch locations with convenient parking and charging options, while performing a smart home ‘wake up’ upon arrival at a property.

The demonstrator even features what has been dubbed a ‘Synthesis Music Experience’, which allows customers to create and synthesise their own music while the car is self-driving.

STLA Smart Cockpit, STLA Brain and STLA AutoDrive will make their debut in a production vehicle on Chrysler’s first battery-electric vehicle expected in 2025.

The car brand billed the concept as ‘Harmony in Motion’.

‘For nearly 100 years, Chrysler has created ingenious products and technologies for mainstream customers, and Chrysler will continue that legacy of innovation as the first to launch the STLA Smart Cockpit in North America,’ said Chris Feuell, Chrysler brand CEO at Stellantis.

‘The Chrysler Synthesis shown at CES 2023 represents the future of Chrysler brand design, technology, and customer experience, by introducing customer-centric design and intuitive, seamlessly connected technology for real life.’

She added: ‘Chrysler is focused on delivering Harmony In Motion for every aspect of the customer experience with the product, technology, purchase and ownership experiences, resulting in harmony with the planet, our products, services and customer experiences.’

The design of the Synthesis cockpit was inspired by Chrysler’s Airflow, which was released in concept form at CES last year.

The STLA Brain works within the STLA Smart Cockpit infotainment system, which features a 37-inch sculpted black glass screen for both front occupants.

Meanwhile, Chrysler says its advanced AI technology adapts and enhances the user interface over time, with the capability to ‘learn’ owner preferences.

‘The virtual personal assistant helps make life easier by automatically installing updates, synching to calendars for schedule and route planning, allowing multi-tasking while driving autonomously, recommending parking and charging options, assisting with e-commerce services, seamlessly connecting to devices and smart homes and offering tranquil in-vehicle experiences,’ the car brand said.

‘The day in the life experience kicks off when the day begins, as the vehicle provides a “welcome” to the owner and maps out an intelligent trip plan for the day.

‘The AI advanced technology handles autonomous driving, locating parking spaces and charging ports and much more, in a cockpit enhanced by an electrified, clean and smart connected experience.’
