The amount of the fine issued was $30,257,635.50 and serves as the largest fine assessed to date. The 2006 penalty assessed to DaimlerChrysler nearly doubles their 2005 fine of $16,895,472.00.

2007 Detroit Auto Show: Chrysler Nassau Concept

Chrysler’s concept for Detroit is a look at what can be done post-300C. The 300 sedan was such a hit for the company it will be hard to follow it up with almost anything. In the Nassau, Chrysler offers a surprising take on the family sedan — it isn’t a sedan at all; it’s a four-door hatchback.

Because of its rounded rear, the Nassau doesn’t appear nearly as large as the 300C, though it is. The front and rear are exaggerated, and there are certainly some flaws inherent in the design, but we still see a lot of potential here.

The slab-faced 300C, while a success, is visually stunting. This more arrow-headed — and ended — look could easily be its successor because the design cues still mirror the current Chrysler lineup. It might not be a home run, but the Nassau certainly makes us curious about the future of Chrysler’s large sedan.
