I was looking into a Nurgle army and Huron is a viable option to help speed units into my enemy ranks. A question does come up though..

Can Huron's Warlord Trait Infiltrate Infantry inside Chariots?

Specifically, the Cavalcades in the Heavy Support slot of the Chaos Daemons codex would be the target of such a tactic. I am sure that his Warlord Trait would affect Battle Brothers, but not sure if the Infiltrate would work on models in Chariots (not a dedicated transport).

You nominate an Infantry unit. Is the Cavalcade an Infantry unit?

Unit Type is listed both as as Infantry (Character) and Vehicle (Chariot, Fast, Open-topped) in their profile.

Isn't there something in the infiltrate rules that tells you the rule confers to a dedicated transport? Perhaps I'm thinking of scout...

Once more we run into the word unit and the fact 'mixed unit type' units are poorly defined at best. In this situation though I would advise you to take a look at the infiltration rule itself and see if a limitation exists within that could make the matter moot. I am not with a book at the moment to review for myself so I can not confirm, but I have a feeling that the infiltration rule is 'model only.' Should this be the case then it wouldn't matter if you had a way to grant Infiltration to the rider, as all models within the unit would need to have the special rule in order to deploy using infiltration.

A unit in a dedicated transport passes Infiltrate to the transport.

However:

Each Seeker Cavalcade is a squadron of 1-3 models composed of Seeker Chariots...

Only vehicles form squadrons, and a Seeker Chariot (according to the profile) is a vehicle. Therefore, whilst the unit contains Infantry models, it is not an Infantry unit.
