Cue the dramatic music because the auto spies have discovered an uncovered 2015 Chrysler 200.

As much as I want to believe we have spies working all hours of the day to uncover the secrets at Chrysler, these shots come courtesy of Autonews.com.  The photos they obtained appear to be from a photo shoot for a marketing campaign for the update to the Chrysler 200.

The news of the update has been spread around already but this is the first real look at one.  All that’s been known up to this point is that the 200 would be borrowing from other Chrysler brethren such as the Dodge Dart and Jeep Cherokee’s CUSW platform as well as the new nine-speed transmission.

The 2015 Chrysler 200 will not be skimping out on any features.  The latest technologies that Chrysler has come up with in such as gas-saving will be implemented on the 200.  Chrysler is pushing the 200 to be a major competitor in the market and is hoping that this update will make it stand out.  Keep your eyes peeled for more information as it becomes available on the update to the Chrysler 200.

Chrysler Making First Ever “Small SUV”

Chrysler has been making headlines of late thanks to the company filing for an IPO. It’s all boring and complicated speak that is good in a conference room full of people who speak of such things on a daily basis, but to people interested in the cars, it’s a foreign language. Thankfully though, some people are being able to scour through the wording of the IPO filing and discovered some hidden gems buried in the avalanche of lengthy words.

USA Today was one such scavenger that found a little tid-bit in the filing. Chrysler just let it be known that they are working on a first ever small SUV. This new vehicle will be based on the same platform that the Dodge Dart is using. That’s pretty much where the information ends, Chrysler didn’t have anything else to say about the matter.

In the same filing, the rumor that Chrysler is downsizing its redundant platforms seems to be true. In 2010 the auto company had 11 platforms and will be reducing that number to nine before the end of next year.

The filing also shows how well Chrysler has recovered since the infamous bankruptcy. In 2009, when the company was going through reorganization, Chrysler reported that 70% of their dealers were profitable. This year, that number increased to 88%.

The future is bright for Chrysler as it looks to increasing its presence in the North American auto business and world-wide. They are taking the necessary steps to ensure that the Chrysler name could very well be the top dog of automakers in the years to come.

2013 Dodge ChallengerChrysler must be really getting into the Fast & Furious mind-set.  Someone looked at the Challenger and asked for more power.

Rumor has gotten into the news today that Chrysler is developer a Hemi V-8 that is capable of 640 horsepower, putting it on the same level as the SRT Viper’s V-10.

The codename attached to this project is pretty cool, the Hellcat.  The expectation is that this be debuted inside the 2015 Dodge Challenger and other vehicles after that.

As of right now, Chrysler is refusing to comment.

If this is indeed true, then it could be one last hurray for such a high-powered gas-guzzling engine.  Federal regulations are increasing fuel economy and will lead to companies needing to focus on more fuel efficient vehicles.  Enjoy it while it lasts.
