What kind of car is the Chrysler Crossfire?
The Crossfire is a two-seat sports car offered as a coupe and a roadster. Its long hood and sharply drawn rear give it a distinctive shape within Chrysler’s range. Developed during the DaimlerChrysler period, it uses the Mercedes-Benz R170 platform, also used by the first-generation SLK.
The Crossfire had one generation, from 2004 to 2008. It paired Chrysler styling with mechanical foundations from Mercedes-Benz.
