The Chicago Auto Show opens this weekend, and one of the biggest draws is always a look into the future of cars.
The auto industry is at a major crossroads right now. In fact, Chrysler and Dodge are calling this model year "Last Call" for some of their beloved models which will be gas-powered for the final time.
It's a "Dedicated BEV" which means it's a battery-operated electric vehicle with tons of technology packed inside. It has a massive "frunk" — or front trunk — where an engine might normally be. You can have the tailgate closed and still stores items up to 18-feet long.Another concept car on display: the Chrysler Airflow Granite Concept, which is this compact utility vehicle with 80 inches of screens — five of them on the instrument panel that all talk to one another.
"It's displaying all the technology that Chrysler's going to be using in its future vehicles," said Matt Huber, Vice President of Chrysler.
