Some time ago there was a thread in this forum questioning wether the engine in the new Chrysler super concept car (can't remember its name right now) was provided by Mercedes or not. The latest issue of german car mag auto motor sport says: yes. The engine is based on a Mercedes S
600 V12 turbocharged engine with two single overhead cams and three valves per cylinder. Its overwhelming power and torque is a result from traditional tuning done by Mercedes owned AMG and from 4 instead of 2 turbochargers. The engine was taken from Mercedes, because "Chrysler did not have a suitable engine at hand".Question of wether to built a series of this car will be answered as soon as the actual market demand is being determined.
