Chrysler announced a lit of vehicles the company would drop one month ago and the Crossfire model was one of them. The last Crossfire rolled out yesterday after a five year production and 80,000 units being built. <\/p>\n

Are we sad? Not really. The Crossfire was a Chrysler’s failure and the perfect illustration of the company’s German management. Instead of building specific products, Mercedes wanted Chrysler to build re-designed outgoing Mercedes model. The Crossfire was one of them. Based on the former SLK roadster, it failed in terms of performance but also in terms of design which never happened before to the company. Indeed, a model derived from a show car was always very close to the concept car but in the Crossfire case, the changes made to the original design created a coup\u00e9 and roadster with a dubious front fascia which has nothing to do with the concept car.<\/p>\n

With the Crossfire being stopped, one does hope that the Dodge Demon Concept will get the green light. A production version of the concept car might become a hit as it was targeted as an affordable roadster set to compete with the MX-5. Unveiled at Geneva this year, it was powered by a 2.4-litre petrol engine with an output of 170bhp being hooked up to a six speed manual gearbox.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
