Default Chrysler Nassau Concept @ NAIAS



Chrysler’s four-door, four-passenger concept embodies a visually compact appearance, while possessing SUV-like interior space thanks to a silhouette recalling old English shooting brake design. Interior design draw inspiration from contemporary computers, cell phones and music players to provide familiarly between everyday electronics and vehicle controls in order to appeal specifically to younger generations. Nassau is powered by a 6.1-liter HEMI and runs to 60 mph in five seconds.

Its looks like that Infiniti SUV.. from the back.

I guess Chrysler sent their spies to Japan instead of Germany.

That 300 series looks just like a Bentley.

It's a nice looking concept... let's just hope it stays a concept.

Chrysler needs to work on refining their product line, manufacturing with quality, and investing more money into R&D before they release any more garbage.

Yeah, I said it.

The door panels remind me of the BMW 3-series and the taillights remind me of the 5-series. That's just me...

Given how badly Chrysler botched the Crossfire and Airflite concepts (Airflite turned into the god-awful Sebring) I really am cringing at the thought of how a production Nassau would turn out.

I have to agree, the new Sebring looks kinda out of proportion to me. I'd like to see what the convertible will look like. I'm sure in either form, it will be big in rental car fleets.
