| Tweet | ||
Classically-inspired, Atlantic continues the role as a vision for the constant evolution of the Chrysler brand image--one that places a great deal of importance on style, presence, heritage and performance.
This marvelous car from Chrysler, only to be built in a series of 100 cars, is clearly inspired by Bugatti Type 57S Atlantic, it even got its name from it, and has something as unusual (today) as a straight-8 engine - like the Bugatti. One can also see a clear likeness wîth the Talbot Lago Coupé of 1938. Some also draw parallels to early Jaguars, like the XK120Source -

Inside and out, Chrysler Atlantic concept vehicle is a pure-bred coupe borne of romantic fancy - a longing for the days when cars were conceived not in a wind tunnel, but on an artist's canvas. Atlantic is far more than a car. It is a fond tribute to a time when expressive coupes were created one at a time by a gifted craftsmen. It is a living, breathing example of automotive design as art, expressed in the technological expertise of Chrysler.
