Chrysler Java

Last updated

The Chrysler Java was a concept car created by Chrysler. The Chrysler Java was first introduced at the 1999 Frankfurt Motor Show. Its design was based upon the Chrysler minivans.

The Java was powered by a 1.4 L 4-cylinder engine. The Java had a top speed of about 105 mph (169 km/h); and could accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in approximately 12.9 seconds. It used a five-speed manual transmission.

The Java's design was more likely architectural than automotive. The Java had an egg-like shape, and also had tall taillights. The Java was originally painted in black, and was later repainted to a light green-silver metallic.

The Dodge Tomahawk is a non-street legal vehicle introduced in 2003 by Dodge at the North American International Auto Show, initially as a one-off concept, and then later that year as a limited production vehicle when DaimlerChrysler announced they would sell hand-built reproductions on order. The Tomahawk attracted significant press and industry attention for its striking design, its outsize-displacement, 10-cylinder car engine, and its four close-coupled wheels, which give it a motorcycle-like appearance. Experts disagreed on whether it is a true motorcycle. The Retro-Art Deco design's central visual element is the 500-horsepower (370 kW), 8.3-litre (510 cu in) V10 SRT10 engine from the Dodge Viper sports car. The Tomahawk's two front and two rear wheels are sprung independently, which would allow it to lean into corners and countersteer like a motorcycle.
