Re: [Chrysler300] Chrysler's plan

Thanks, Carlton, for sending this to the group.  It is very interesting.

I especially enjoyed pages 131 and 133.  They showed the proposed 2010 300 and Grand Cherokee.

Did anyone else notice the similarity between the grill filler of the 300 and the now-abandoned Imperial concept of a couple years ago?  It looks better on this 300 proposal.  That Imperial was just a bloated, chunky design that I did not find very appealing.  Also note there is no side view mirror on the 300 picture.  That would indicate that the design might not be finalized.  Overall, I find it to be a good design.

The Grand Cherokee front end looks like an evolution of the design last used on the 2004 rather than the current 2005-09 design.  A great improvement as far as I'm concerned.  And the interior seems to show the door handles back near the top of the door panels, where they belong.  The current ones are rather poorly located lower on the panel and difficult to reach.

Now just let's hope they will put the cruise control buttons back on the steering wheel.

Anyone else care to offer their opinion?

  Hello,

  Here is a link to the 177 page (includes quite a few blank pages) Chrysler restructuring plan. The link to the plan is at the bottom of the article where it says "here". While there is a lot of financial information and material about the Fiat alliance, there is also good info on future products. If all goes as planned it looks like the HEMI, 300C, and Charger will be around. There will be a new Chrysler 200C "range-extended" electric car.
