The Chrysler Concorde, a full-size sedan produced from 1993 to 2004, marked a significant shift for Chrysler in the mid-1990s. The first generation, encompassing the 1993-1997 model years, was a departure from the traditional boxy American sedan designs, adopting a more aerodynamic, European-inspired aesthetic. This sleek profile was achieved through the extensive use of wind tunnel testing, resulting in a car with a drag coefficient of just 0.31, a remarkable figure for its time. The Concorde was available in three trim levels: the base model, the well-equipped "LX," and the luxurious "LXi." Power came from a 3.3-liter V6 engine, producing a respectable 161 horsepower, or optionally a potent 3.5-liter V6 generating 214 horsepower. Paired with a four-speed automatic transmission, the Concorde offered a smooth and comfortable driving experience, even with a full load of passengers. Inside, the Concorde provided a spacious and refined cabin, featuring comfortable cloth or leather seating, ample legroom, and a well-appointed dashboard.
The introduction of the Chrysler Concorde, along with its platform siblings, the Dodge Intrepid and the Eagle Vision, cemented Chrysler's position as a manufacturer of stylish and technologically advanced vehicles. It successfully competed with the likes of the Ford Taurus and the Chevrolet Lumina, offering a compelling blend of performance, comfort, and value. The 1993-1997 Concorde served as a foundation for the second-generation model, which further refined its design and features, solidifying its reputation as a reliable and enjoyable family car. While not without its minor issues, the Concorde's overall quality and performance made it a popular choice for American families seeking a comfortable and well-equipped sedan.
