With my recently proposed "Heritage" division proving to be quite a popular idea online, I've extended a similar concept to the "new" Chrysler corporation, now owned by Fiat of course. I'd call this new division "American" to recall AMC as well as point out the fact these are fully American vehicles and would always be built wholly within the United States. With all of the AMC as well as Plymouth and DeSoto nameplates available, my first introduction would be this Javelin SST plug-in electric sports coupe. Leave the monster Hemis and Hellcat engines to Dodge, "American" would be their electric car division.
What look like retro tape stripes are actually aero "tunnels" stamped into the sheetmetal to help keep airflow attached without large spoilers and airdams. Full LED lighting front and rear as well as quite a bit of carbon fiber used in the body structure help keep weight to a minimum. What appears to be the Javelin's vinyl roof is actually polished carbon fiber sail panels designed to assist airflow to the rear lip spoiler, also in the interest of economy and quietness. Electronic all wheel drive would also be featured.
A Javelin for the twenty first century! Casey I love your heratage divisions . This one is unexpected ,the side flutes are too clever !
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see more in this series .

I love the way the red aero tunnels connect to the rear lights giving the impression of wrapping around the back of the car. Just imagine the presence this would have on the road if only it were real.
ReplyDeleteI admire your ideas and always look forward to seeing more of them. But this one hits it home. Great job I hope they will see this and consider this. The tail-lights are absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAwesome car! Love the red detailing to it, looks extremely fast. I wish I could drive something like that.
ReplyDeletedo the matador coupe
ReplyDeleteI love your work. Hope to see more in the future. I see a 1966 Riviera influence in the roof line/C pillar.
ReplyDeleteI had a 68 Javelin, as far as retro look goes, you knocked it out of the park... I sure wish someone would bring back the Javelin... What about on a Challenger body? The roof line is "spot-on"
