Chrysler LHS

Ümumi Baxış

The Chrysler LHS was introduced in 1994 as the premium-tier sedan on the LH cab-forward platform — positioned above the Concorde and representing the replacement for the New Yorker in the lineup. The name "LHS" stood for "Large High Sport" in Chrysler's internal designation. It offered the 3.5L V6 (214 hp, rising to 253 hp on the second generation) as standard equipment, with a more premium interior than the Concorde.

The first generation (1994–1997) shared the platform but offered a more upscale trim with available leather, wood trim, and upgraded audio systems. The second generation (1999–2001) brought significantly improved styling, a revised 3.5L V6 producing 253 hp, and a higher-quality interior that better matched European luxury rivals of the era.

The LHS was discontinued in 2001 and replaced by the Chrysler 300M. In Azerbaijan, it represents a very affordable used large sedan option with a comfortable ride and genuine V6 power.
