All Cars Look The Same These Days Right?
Wrong.
Its true that many cars do look bland and boring but have you taken a look at the Chrysler range recently? Whereas most mainstream manufacturers seem to always play safe by designing cars that will offend no one Chrysler are blazing their own trail with a range that dares to be different yet still covers all of the main vehicle groups: hatchback saloon executive saloon twoseater sports and MPV.
Lets start with the PT Cruiser hatchback because it really epitomises Chryslers gungho approach. Although the quirky retrofuturistic design is a few years old now it still looks as fresh as a daisy and turns heads wherever it goes. The design has recently been refreshed with some judicious resculpting and there are no fewer than ten variations to choose from all at sensible prices. With a tall profile that enables a commandoftheroad driving position plus flexible versatile interior space it really lives up to its name because the PT prefix stands for personal transportation ndash; and thats exactly what it is.
Need a premium family saloon? Take a look at the Sebring a stylish and some say sexy fourdoor fiveseater powered by three alternative engines: an economical yet gutsy 2.0 diesel a new 2.0 petrol power plant and a new 2.4 petrol automatic. From the distinctive signature grille centre spine and fluted bonnet to the purposefully sculpted tail the Sebring exudes sophistication and individuality. In a marketplace dominated by bland euro boxes the Sebring is a welcome blast of fresh air.
But you dont really want a family saloon do you? Walk this way and let me introduce you to the Chrysler Crossfire. It has the sleekest most beautiful most aerodynamic body youve seen since Kiera Knightly emerged from the fountain in Atonement with the added bonus of a smooth responsive 3.2 litre V6 engine that makes it go as fast as any human being should ever need to travel. And if you dont want to blowdry your hair in the wind theres a coupeacute; version. Best of all it only costs around pound;2528000 ndash; fantastic value for such panache performance personality and rarity especially compared to its much more common and costly competitors.
Unfortunately seven into two dont go so for large families choosing the capacious sevenseater Voyager is a nobrainer ndash; unless you need even more space and versatility such as the new Stow ‘n Go seats which adapt to create over 165 cubic feet of storage space in which case the Grand Voyager will tick all the right boxes. Who said MPVs had to be ugly? These are smart stylish highly practical stateoftheart vehicles that drive like a car ride like a limousine and offer compelling value for money. In fact the biggest problem for Chrysler is that many potential buyers ignore them because they think that as they look so sleek and superior they are far more expensive than they actually are. Prices start at just pound;19000.
So now we come to the piegrave;ce de reacute;sistance the Chrysler 300C. This is a serious executive limousine with a distinctive perhaps even imperious presence due in no small part to the dramatic design styling centred upon the bold grille and nicely weighted use of chrome. This is a vehicle for astute captains of industry and commerce who want to drive a quiet refined and sophisticated vehicle that stands apart from the rest but costs several thousand pounds less than its soulless rivals. All the desired power performance and gadgetry are there combined into a compellingly charismatic package that makes everything else on the road look rather ordinary.
Im quite excited by the Chrysler range. Although the heritage and history is all there this is a company looking and moving forward in a distinctly different way. The unique styling approach wont appeal to everybody but perhaps thats the point?
