AUBURN HILLS, MI -- June 23, 2015: Chrysler was founded in 1925 by
Walter P. Chrysler, and it was his commitment to the public that Chrysler
would deliver consumers a product with quality, beauty, speed, comfort,
style and power, all at a low price. And for the past 90 years, this has
been the Chrysler brand’s mission.
Today's
Chrysler brand is the modern expression of this vision. Chrysler stands for
quality, for design, for craftsmanship, for performance, for efficiency,
for innovation and technology – all at a very attainable
price.
2015 is the Chrysler brand’s
90th year and to celebrate, the brand is producing limited-edition
90th Anniversary models that offer more standard equipment and value for
customers.
“Ninety years ago, Walter P. Chrysler
laid the foundation for a philosophy that still works today –
craftsmanship, beautiful design, innovation and technology, all at an
affordable price,” said Al Gardner – President and CEO Chrysler
Brand, FCA US LLC. “Those traits still resonate today in both the
products – the Chrysler 200 mid-size sedan, 300 full-size sedan and
Town & Country minivan – and with consumers. Chrysler brand sales
are up almost 20 percent this year, which is a great foundation for the
brand heading into the next 90 years.”

Available in the third quarter, the 2016 Chrysler 200 Limited model will be
available with a 90th Anniversary Package. The special-edition package
reflects the tenets of the Chrysler brand – a car that is packed with
features that customers value, at a price they appreciate.
In addition to the standard features on the 2016 Chrysler 200 Limited
