2011 Chrysler 300

2011 Chrysler 300 in black color


The replacement for the most acclaimed American car of the decade, the 2011 Chrysler 300 hits the road with crisp styling, advanced features and a more luxurious interior.



The 300's big grille features horizontal bars that look like stylized aircraft wings. Chrysler calls the grille's rich finish "liquid chrome." Fender flares appear to rise above the hoodline and trunk. Keyhole-shaped headlights feature LED running lights.



The 300 will come with either Chrysler's new 292-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 or a 363-horsepower 5.7-liter Hemi V8. Both engines mate with a five-speed automatic transmission.



The optional all-wheel drive system disconnects the front axle from the driveline when rear-drive provides sufficient traction. Chrysler says the system will improve fuel economy 5% over competitive AWD systems.



Other new features include a standard 8.4-inch touchscreen for the radio and other systems, blind-spot and cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control and a capless fuel filler.

2012 New Chrysler 200 Convertible





New Chrysler 200 Convertible is not a bad looking car, the Chrysler 200 Convertible will be performing at New York Auto Show, and while the design of the conversion is not the creation of the most interesting, because the rear still looks a lot awkward. Besides the elimination of fixed roof, we expect the Chrysler 200 Convertible become largely the same as partners sedan, with improved interiors and engine options all brought. This means that both the 2.4-liter inline-four and 3.6-liter V6 Pentastar must underhood, and the end result is a car that, while better than the model it replaces.

2011 Chrysler 200 is based on the third-gen Sebring

Side Pic of 2011 Chrysler 200




Chrysler has unveiled its new mid-sized challenger to rival the Camry, Accord and Chevy Malibu. Named 200, this younger brother to the 300 kills off the Sebring nameplate and will go on sale as a 2011 model. Fiat now owns Chrysler, but the Sterling Heights, Michigan built 200 isn’t a reskinned Italian car.



Described as a car that appeals to "customers that want style and substance, all at a surprising value", the 200 is based on the third-gen Sebring, which made its debut in 2007, but with heavily revised styling that makes it appear much more handsome than before.



New bits include front and rear fascias and fenders, grille featuring the new Chrysler winged badge, hood, rear decklid and exterior mirrors, new projector headlamps and fog lamps, new LED taillamps and a LED centre high-mounted stop light. The rear end clearly apes the Jaguar XF.



The 200 will be powered by the 2.4-litre four-pot "World Engine" mated to either a four-speed or six-speed automatic gearbox. The V6 option is filled by the company’s 3.6-litre Pentastar engine mated to a six-speed auto.



Chrysler says that ride and handling has been improved thanks to stiffened body mounts and a softer ride rate, improved suspension geometry with a raised roll centre and a new rear sway bar. NVH has been "extensively upgraded" from the old car as well.

2009 Chrysler Sebring Convertible

2009 Chrysler Sebring Convertible
The 2009 Chrysler Sebring Convertible offers two convertible top options: cloth and a body-color painted steel retractable hard top, both of which retract with the push of a button on the key fob. With a standard power hard tonneau cover on all models, top up or down, the Chrysler Sebring Convertible provides the benefits of a coupe and the true open-air freedom of a convertible at an affordable price.

Three engine options power the 2009 Chrysler Sebring Convertibles sold in the United States: the standard 2.4-liter four-cylinder World Engine, an available Flex Fuel Vehicle (FFV) 2.7-liter V-6 engine and an available 3.5-liter V-6 engine coupled with a new six-speed automatic transaxle featuring Auto Stick. The available 2.7-liter V-6 Flex Fuel Vehicle (FFV) engine produces 186 horsepower (139 kW) and 191 lb.-ft. 260 (N•m) of torque. This 2.7-liter V-6 engine achieves 18 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway. It also operates effectively on any blend of gasoline and fuel-grade ethanol up to E85. Chrysler Sebring Convertible Limited models sold in the United States feature a standard 3.5-liter V-6 engine that produces 235 horsepower (175 kW) and 232 lb.-ft. (232 N•m) of torque coupled with a six-speed automatic transaxle that comes standard with Auto Stick. The 3.5-liter V-6 engine and six-speed automatic transaxle deliver excellent performance and fuel efficiency, as well as smooth quiet operation. The Sebring Convertible's 3.5-liter V-6 engine achieves 16 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway.

The Chrysler Sebring Convertible has a rigid body structure to provide a quiet, comfortable ride and help eliminate cowl shake, even when the top is down. The front-wheel-drive architecture and the three-box vehicle design contribute to a body that is 2.5 times stiffer in twist and 1.5 times stiffer in bending than the previous-generation Chrysler Sebring Convertible. These refinements make the Chrysler Sebring Convertible structure stiffer than other convertibles on the market that cost thousands of dollars more.

The exterior of the car features 18-inch chromed aluminum wheels (now standard on Chrysler Sebring Convertible Limited) havng Silver Steel Metallic Clear Coat replaces Dark Titanium Metallic Clear Coat

Looks can be decieving: DiMore JX Coupe Concept crossbreed

Don’t let the load bay fool you. This one of a kind DiMore JX Coupe Concept is indeed just that: A Coupe! Based on the 1999 Chrysler Concorde, the owner of this vehicle opted for a trendier version of the five seater, four door average Chrysler. Things that may seem important but were completely removed include the back seat, the rear doors and half of the roof. Newer and more interesting things added included the 3.2 litre V6 engine, a re-trimmed leather interior and a sports exhaust system. Via: Jalopnik

Chrysler Crossfire JAB Anstoetz Design Study – Geneva debut

Created in conjunction with fabric designer and manufacture JAB Anstoetz, Chrysler’s Crossfire study attempts to export material and textile styles from the world of… carpets to the world of cars. And if the exterior color scheme doesn't raise an eyelid, without doubt, the light-blue and chocolate-brown toned interior that combines suede and crocodile-leather is something you don't see. Well, that's not entirely true as to be honest, I can think of a chap or two who've decorated their cars "Anstoetz" style. Only they don't wear Armani costumes and they still think that mullets are cool… -Continued: Click “Read More…” below to see more images and the German press release (the English press kit will be added later on)


PRESS RELEASE: Weltpremiere auf dem Genfer Automobil-Salon 2007

JAB Anstoetz gestaltet erstmals ein Fahrzeug - und wählt als Basis einen Chrysler Crossfire

- Design-Studie verblüfft mit außergewöhnlichen Farbwelten und Oberflächen

- Die Innenräume von Wohnungen und Autos haben mehr miteinander zu tun, als man denkt

Genf - Auf dem Genfer Automobilsalon 2007 (Presse-Tage 06. und 07. März) präsentieren die Chrysler Group, JAB ANSTOETZ und Karmann eine außergewöhnliche Design-Studie auf Basis des Chrysler Crossfire, die auf dem Karmann-Stand in Halle 1 zu sehen sein wird.

Die Herausforderung war Vater der Idee, ein automobiles Designerstück wie den Chrysler Crossfire mit Materialien und Textilien aus dem Wohnbereich auszustatten. Der weltweit führende Stoff- und Teppichverlag JAB Anstoetz nahm die Herausforderung an und stylte den Chrysler Crossfire komplett neu. Dabei wagte sich das Designer-Team um Ralph Anstoetz auf Neuland, denn bisher war das Betätigungsfeld der erfolgreichen Bielefelder eher die Immobilie als das Automobil. Seine ausdrucksstarke Dynamik ließ die Wahl für das geeignete Objekt auf das zweisitzige Sportcoupé Chrysler Crossfire fallen, denn es regte die Fantasie des Design-Teams ganz besonders an.

Ziel dieser von JAB ANSTOETZ entworfenen und von Karmann in Osnabrück gebauten Designstudie ist ein Show Car der besonderen Art das zeigt, wie nah sich der heimische Wohnbereich und das Interieur eines Autos sind - ohne es zu wissen. Denn schließlich sind dies die beiden Räume, in denen wir einen großen Teil unserer Zeit verbringen. JAB ANSTOETZ richtete das Hauptaugenmerk auf die Vielfalt an Strukturen und Texturen und schuf ein harmonisches Farb- und Textilkonzept, das sich deutlich von gewohnter Auto-Innenraumgestaltung abgrenzt.

Bei der Gestaltung der Designstudie Chrysler Crossfire by JAB ANSTOETZ ließen sich die Designer von der vornehmlich männlichen Zielgruppe des aufregenden Coupés leiten. Die maskuline Farbtonstimmung Braun wurde bislang unter modernen Gesichtpunkten eher vernachlässigt und bot sich auch deshalb für eine extravagante Gestaltung an. Die in der Designstudie verwendeten Braun- und Blautöne unterscheiden sich von den bislang in der Automobilindustrie bekannten Farbgebungen.

Ausgangspunkt des Farb-Spektrums ist ein Velours-Stoff im inneren Bereich der Sitzflächen in 'Chimneybrown' und mit drei verschiedenen Farb-Akzenten. In den Mittelbereichen des Armaturentafel- und Türbereichs kam ein Suede (Wirbelfließ) in 'Kitamiblue' zum Einsatz, der mit seiner modernen schreibenden Optik besticht.

Das obere Armaturenbrett sowie Teile der Türverkleidungen sind mit einem der Krokodilhaut nachempfundenen Kunstleder veredelt, das mit seiner glänzenden Oberfläche die Verbindung zwischen dem Lack im Außenbereich und den Texturen im Innenraum herstellt.

Den Kofferraumbereich kleidet ein moderner Langflor-Teppich der JAB ANSTOETZ- Kollektion in 'Kitamiblue' aus. Für die Einzelanfertigung der Fußmatten für Fahrer und Beifahrer wählte das Team die Struktur eines Design-Teppichs mit Schlinge und Flor und passte die Farbgestaltung dem Gesamtkonzept an.

Die Wirkung des Chrysler Crossfire-Interieurs von JAB ANSTOETZ auf die Passagiere soll ein angenehmes und ruhiges Klima befördern, ohne jedoch die sportliche Dynamik des Zweisitzers zu vernachlässigen.

Die von Karmann teilweise in Handarbeit gefertigte Designstudie Chrysler Crossfire by JAB ANSTOETZ ist das Ergebnis einer Symbiose von Partnern, deren Produkte - ob Textil, Teppich oder Automobil - gleichermaßen auf die Wünsche ihrer Kunden nach Individualität, außergewöhnlichem Design und Qualität ausgerichtet sind.

Official: Chrsyler Group approves small-car agreement with Chinese, Chery Motors

Theoretically and for the time being, the Chrysler Group is up for sale but that doesn’t mean that the Group has halted all its future projects. Today DaimlerChrysler announced that its Supervisory Board approved the framework of a limited partnership to develop small vehicles between the Chrysler Group and Chinese Chery Motor Company. Although this agreement has to be approved by the “almighty” Chinese government, consider it a done deal with the final paper work to be signed by the end of March.

According to DC, under the non-equity partnership, the Chery-built vehicles will be distributed under Chrysler brands, primarily in North America and Western Europe. -Continued: Click “Read More…” below to see the press release

PRESS RELEASE: Auburn Hills, Mich./Stuttgart, Germany - The DaimlerChrysler Supervisory Board today approved the framework of a limited partnership to develop small vehicles between the Chrysler Group and Chery Motor Company of China. The deal is still contingent upon approval by the Chinese government, but the final pact of the framework is expected to be signed by the end of March. Under the non-equity partnership, Chery-built vehicles will be distributed under Chrysler brands, primarily in North America and Western Europe.

Chrysler Group indicated that the partnership would allow the company to become a bigger player on the global automotive stage by giving it access to products in new segments more quickly, with less capital spending.

Small vehicles such as these will allow Chrysler Group brands to compete in segments in which the brands do not currently compete, and which are especially important in price- and fuel-economy sensitive markets. Some 67 percent of all vehicles sold outside of North America are in these segments. Chrysler Group's major competitors in the U.S. and Western Europe have similar arrangements with Asian manufacturers for vehicles in these segments.

Hyundai: "We’re not interested in Chrysler"


This past weekend we saw several reports announcing Hyundai’s interest in joining possible bidders for the Chrysler Group. Hyundai’s response was immediate. The Korean Group’s spokesperson Jake Jang told Associated Press today, "We are not considering to buy Chrysler because our hands are full", putting all rumours to an end. To be honest I found Hyundai’s interest too far fetched.

But Hyundai isn’t the only Group who’s been reported to be interested in Chrysler. GM is another hypothetical candidate. Yes GM, the firm that has a million or so problems to solve on its own wants to buy Chrysler, a competitive company that’s in the same or probably even worse situation… Apart from the fact that there’s no logic whatsoever for a move of this scale, GM couldn’t even come to an understanding with the Renault-Nissan Group let alone with Chrysler.

Talking about the Renault-Nissan Group, and if and I repeat "if", DaimlerChrysler is seriously searching for someone to “dump” Chrysler and it’s not some sort of tactic to push forward a "hands-down" restructuring plan, I’d say that a scenario concerning an alliance between the American and French-Japanese Groups sounds quiet sane to me. What do you think?

Scooped: 2008 Dodge “JC49” mid-sized crossover

Swedish Automotorsport has published a couple of pics featuring ChryslerGroups’s answer to the new Ford Edge that goes by the codename “JC49”. From what we learned, the “JC49” will most probably be presented in September with sales starting in the US towards the end of the year (as a 2008 model). While it’s still unclear whether the mid-size crossover or CUV if you prefer, will get a third row seat, we do know for certain that it’s based on the Chrysler Sebring / Dodge Avenger platform and that it'll be built at Chrysler's Toluca, Mexico, factory starting in December 2007.

So I guess the next question you’ll make is whether we’ll see a Chrysler version of the CUV. Although unconfirmed, rumors have it that Chrysler’s version codenamed “JZ49” is expected sometime in 2009 as a 2010 model. Via: Automotorsport
