ONE
MAN'S CAR COMPANY: THE WALTER P. CHRYSLER STORY
Kansas-born Walter P. Chrysler (1875-1940), the son of a locomotive
engineer, lived inside the world of the transportation industry throughout
his life.
In 1912 he joined General Motors as manager of its Buick manufacturing
plant, becoming president of the division four years later.
After parting ways with GM in 1919, Chrysler began a second career as a
"doctor of ailing automakers" and under his leadership, the Maxwell Motor
Corporation was restored to health and renamed the Chrysler Corporation.
Its subsequent success was directly attributable to the success of its
initial product. The 1924 Chrysler Six, an all-new car offered two
significant innovations – a light, powerful, high-compression six-cylinder
engine and the first ever four-wheel hydraulic brakes, in a moderately
priced vehicle.
The 1928 acquisition of the Dodge Brothers firm made Chrysler the third of
Detroit's "Big Three" automakers overnight and Walter Chrysler one of the
most successful industrialists of his generation.
Known for many years as Detroit's "engineering company," Chrysler
Corporation gained fame for creating power steering, power windows, the
alternator, electronic fuel injection, the HEMI® engine and dozens of
other automotive innovations.
Its famous products include the world's first streamlined car, the 1934
Chrysler Airflow; the 1955 Chrysler 300 (named for its massive HEMI® V8,
the first American production engine to produce 300 horsepower) and the
other sleek "Forward Look" cars of the '50s.
And that doesn't even take into consideration the Dodge and Plymouth
"muscle cars" of the '60s, and the Chrysler minivan which is now
recognized as one of the most successful vehicles of all time.
A merger brought the world-famous Jeep® brand to Chrysler in 1987 and
today's Jeep® vehicles maintain the reputation for durability, established
by predecessor models dating back to World War II.
Today, as an independent automaker, Chrysler LLC is building on its proud
heritage to create tomorrow's most stylish and best engineered personal
transportation.
HEMI is a registered
trademark of Chrysler LLC.
